Coloring Tips & Techniques

Use warm brown and tan for the gingerbread train body, and add white icing accents on the car edges and roof. Color candy canes with red and white stripes, and use bright colors like green and blue for gumdrops and round candies to make them pop. Try light shading along the train sides with a darker brown to show roundness, and add tiny white highlights on candies to show shine.
