SUPPLIES & TOOLS:

  • 10"x 16" cooling grid
  • Cake board
  • Parchment paper
  • Candy Melts® candy: Red, Bright White, Dark Green
  • 12-count candy decorating bags
  • Christmas Tradition Mega Pack sprinkles
  • Pretzel rods
  • Tweezers
  • Parchment paper
  • Melting tray (optional)
  • Bag ties (optional)

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Separately melt each color of Candy Melts candy following package directions. Place melted candy into separate decorating bags. (Optional: to help keep bags closed use bag ties. Keep candy warm on warming tray.)
  2. Place pretzel rods (one at a time) on cooling grid over parchment paper. Cut 1/4" off end of bags. Beginning at one end, pipe stripes of candy on pretzels in this order: red, white, green, white. Continue alternating colors, leaving about 3 1/2" to 4" of bare pretzel at bottom. Tap gently to smooth out candy.
  3. Use tweezers to immediately apply sprinkles to white candy only. Set aside on parchment-covered board. Repeat with more pretzel rods. After about 5 to 6 treats, refrigerate for 10 minutes to set. Repeat steps until desired number of treats are made.
