Crafting Your Fairy Bread Christmas Tree: A Step-by-Step Guide
Ingredients:
Gather these ingredients and let the magic begin!
1. 2 loaves of soft, fresh bread (white or whole grain to your liking)
2. 1 cup of softened unsalted butter
3. 2 cups of sprinkles (feel free to mix in different colors)
4. Edible decorations (think: mini M&Ms, edible stars, candy canes)
The Magic Begins: Creating Your FBCT
1. Cut the crust off the bread and divide each slice into two triangles.
2. Spread a layer of softened butter on one side of each triangle and dip them into a plate full of sprinkles.
3. Once all slices are buttered and sprinkled, it’s time for the most exciting part—building your tree!
4. Begin with a base layer of triangles on a platter, placed pointy-end up and arranging them in a circular pattern. Stack additional layers, reducing the number of triangles each time until you reach the top. Ensure each layer rotates to create a tree effect.
5. Use a single triangle as the top peak of your tree. If you want extra magic, use a star-shaped bread slice!
Decorating Your FBCT
Time to invite the kids back in for the fun part – decoration! You can use mini edible Christmas ornaments or colored sugars for added festivity. Don’t forget to place a star or angel at the top!
Conclusion: An Enchanting Christmas Treat

Preparing the Fairy Bread Christmas Tree: 5 Essential Tips for Parents
If you’re planning to make this holiday extra magical, nothing excites kids more than a fairy bread Christmas tree. A classic Australian treat, fairy bread is fun and easy to make! However, to make it perfect, we’ve listed five things every parent should know.
1. Gather the Ingredients

White, soft, and fluffy loaf bread usually works best for fairy bread. Remember, your bread should be able to hold the shape of a tree well after it’s been cut.

It’s not just about slathering butter and throwing sprinkles. Make sure the butter is evenly spread and the sprinkles are generously scattered to get that perfect fairy sprinkle charm.
5. Let Kids Join the Fun
Making the fairy bread Christmas tree is a great opportunity for kids to be involved and get their hands dirty. They’ll love the chance to participate in making the festive snack.
Now that you’re equipped with these tips, your fairy bread Christmas tree is sure to be the life of your Christmas celebration. Happy Holidays and fun baking!
