Frequently Asked Questions About Reindeer Donuts

These are such an easy edible DIY Christmas craft, but here are some questions people ask. You might have the same question.

Can you use different flavors of donut holes?

Yes, you can use any flavor or type of donut holes that you want. I thought the glazed donut holes looked the most realistic, but it doesn’t matter much. If you use the cinnamon donut holes, it might be messier and more difficult to work with.

How do you store them?

Store them at room temperature, just like you would a donut. The longer you leave them uncovered, the faster they will dry out.

Can I use chocolate-covered pretzels?

Yes, that’s a fantastic idea! If you use chocolate-covered pretzels, they won’t look as “realistic” but they will still be festive and fun.

What can I use instead of candy eyeballs?

If you can’t find any candy eyeballs, you can use icing to draw your own eyeballs. First, add some white icing and let it dry. Then, add a tiny dot of black icing on top. The candy eyeballs are a lot easier to use, but icing works too.
