Arrange your christmas puddings at your round cake stand with lid.

When all small trays are ready, put arranged smaller trays in your Big tray.

If you have an extra 2 or 3 layer stand, arrange your candles in 4 corners.
Put some fresh flowers on the side or sprinkle all around if you have edible flowers.
Lastly, place your Gold Pillar Candle Holder at the back and light it up!
