Bread Baking: Christmas Tree Bread

I saw a tree-shaped cake pan at the grocery store and, naturally, thought it'd be pretty cool for baking bread. Then I figured I could make a pull-apart loaf into a free-form tree shape instead.

What about add-ins? The most Christmas-tree like addition that came to mind was rosemary. I added thyme for a second flavor.

I also sprinkled some white rice flour atop the loaf before baking for a little "snow" effect.
