Expand your pastry skills and ring in the festive season with a mouth-watering choux centrepiece. These sweet puffed-up pastries are filled with cinnamon-and-nutmeg-spiced biscuit cream, then topped with a luscious caramel sauce. This decadent dessert is perfect for entertaining.

4. Savoury squash, chestnut & mushroom wreath

Don't miss out on the savoury centrepieces – try our filling squash, chestnut and mushroom wreath for plant-based perfection. A slice of this seasonal showstopper is ideal as an alternative to stuffing or a veggie main course. It's filled with colour and plenty of texture, and couldn't be further from a boring nut roast. If squash isn't your favourite filling, try our pastry-wrapped vegan Christmas wreath for an alternative main.

Who could turn down golden brown brioche dough balls with a melty cheese middle? Dip to your heart's content with this attention-grabbing baked camembert. Stuff your mini bread rolls with your choice of roasted garlic, fruity quince paste, sharp cranberry sauce or chestnut purée. This rich starter is perfect for the winter season.

Not a cake person? Serve up this mega fridge cake packed with seasonal spices, nuts, dried fruit and crushed biscuits and topped with elegant gingerbread holly leaves and piped poinsettias.

9. Wreath meringue lollies

This is a great Christmas craft to get the kids involved in. Get little hands practising their piping skills and decorating wreaths with sprinkles and sweets. To make piping the circles easier, trace the base of a 6-8cm round cutter or cup onto the baking parchment using a pencil, then flip the parchment over onto the trays and pipe around the template.

10. Christmas wreath cake

Decorate a traditional festive fruitcake with a fun fondant wreath design. You'll also end up with a smaller cake to scoff at home or give away as a gift. Use two different shades of green to cut out simple holly leaf shapes and top with a colourful bow.
