The big surprise was that the snowman's nose is made with a real carrot, a Chantenay carrot, small and conical. The carrot nose inspired me to think of making a carrot cake with a snowman face on top with a carrot nose. (I sometimes have carrot cake from the cafe in Waitrose.)
In your nearest branch of Waitrose supermarket, pick up a copy of the Entertaining Christmas Food made to order. At the back it shows you how to decorate a plain undecorated top iced cake. (The cake can be fruit cake to serve 3-35 costing £26, or chocolate, or sponge, to serve 20-30, at £16.)
If your order comes to £60 you get free delivery.
Their other brochure which is full of recipes shows you how to make mince tarts. You can make them any size you like, using ready-made shortcrust pastry and a jar of mincemeat, or make everything yourself.
