Hot Chocolate Mug Christmas Background

A wide Christmas background shows a cozy ceramic mug filled with hot chocolate placed on the right third of the frame. A candy cane hooks over the rim, and a few marshmallows float on the surface, giving a warm festive feel. The background is a deep burgundy red closely related to the mug accent color, shifting through darker and lighter tones to create a soft gradient. Soft warm light from the left highlights the curve of the mug and the glossy surface of the candy cane while shadows remain gentle and diffuse. The left two thirds of the image stay smooth and uncluttered, forming generous copy space for greetings or branding. Faint blurred hints of pine branches low in the background add atmosphere while keeping the overall look minimalist.
