Begin by washing the strawberries thoroughly and removing the leaves before discarding them.

Cut off the pointed bottom of each strawberry and set them cut-side down on a paper towel to absorb any excess liquid.

Dab the bottom of each strawberry on a paper towel to keep the frosting from slipping off.

Fill a piping bag with vanilla frosting; alternatively, you can use a ziplock bag with one corner snipped off for easy frosting.

Using the frosting, create a swirl on the top section of the strawberry to represent Santa's suit.

Place the trimmed tip of the strawberry atop the frosting to form the Santa's hat.

Add a small dollop of frosting on the tip of the hat to mimic snow.

Finish by using the black icing gel to dot on two small eyes, giving your Santa character.
