This Dessert Cornucopia is the Perfect Holiday Table Decoration

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at JWU Providence chapter.

The cornucopia is one of the most traditional decorations for the day of giving thanks. The base is typically a lovely hollow, horn-shaped wicker basket filled with various kinds of festive fruit and vegetables. It serves as a great centerpiece for the Thanksgiving table but not usually something you find very appetizing. Now, the CONE-UCOPIA is both festive and satisfies the sweet tooth.

There is no rule to what you can put into your cone-ucopia. There is also no rule that says it is for people with a sweet tooth either. For all the snack lovers out there you can add goldfish, Cheez-Its, or even fruit snacks.

On top of it being festive and a great snack, it could serve as an adorable place card on your thanksgiving table setting.
