I love these and they are a christmas tradition for my kids and myself. I just want to add that a dot of pink or red gel icing for eyes and nose adds some character to each little mouse. For halloween use white chocolate and hershey hugs and red gel and they become kind of scary lookin.

I think these are cute but I use mine to decorated the plate with the cheese ball for Christmas. I dig spots around the cheese ball to make it look like the mice have gotten into the cheese ball.
