Rudolph the red nosed reindeer had a very shiny nose and if you ever saw it you would even think it glowed - like a glace cherry :-) Perfect for Christmas :-)
I found this recipe in the free morrissons supermarket free magazine and loved the idea of using curly wurlys for antlers. The original recipe uses dried cranberries instead of cherries but i'm not a big fan of cranberries so i switched to cherries.

    Step 7

    The original recipe says to slice each curly wurly in half widthways, then cut into lengths to make antlers, however this is a bit tricky especially if the curly wurly is hard (and most of mine were already broken in the packet.) So its pretty much up to you how you want to cut them.

    Push the antlers into the cupcakes at the top.
