1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon milk
1 x gumdrops cinnamon candies, fruit leather, jelly, pretzels, for garnish.

Place the popped popcorn in a large lightly greased shallow pan.

Pour the syrup over the popcorn, tossing to coat evenly.

While still warm, form 6 balls about 5 inches in diameter from the coated popcorn for the bottom sections, giving the balls flat bases so the snowmen will stand.

Form 6 balls about 3-1/2 inches in diameter for the middle sections.

Then form 6 balls about 2 inches in diameter for the top Stir in the confectioners' sugar and milk together until smooth.

Use the icing to stack three popcorn balls of decreasing sizes into a snowman, then attach candies to decorate.
