The Fork to Belly Matcha Bread Wreath mixes up [classic Christmas decor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/specially-selected-ultimate-melting-baubles). While the pieces are known to hang on the outside of doors, this blog post has taken the theme to an edible level, offering a delectable take on craft making.

In order to replicate this festive dish, the entry recommends using butter, flour, milk and egg whites. While these ingredients are expected from [standard bread recipes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-cinnaholic-holiday-menu), it mixes up the lot with the addition of [matcha green tea powder](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handy-melts-matcha), a healthy feature known for its oxidizing components.
