Helpful Tips

• Work quickly: Candy melts begin to set fast, so have your Peeps and sprinkles ready before you start dipping.
• Use short bursts when melting: Heat candy melts in 30-second intervals and stir well to avoid overheating or seizing.
• Stabilize the Peeps: If the Peeps won’t stay upright, hold them in place for a few seconds or add a small spoonful of melted chocolate as “glue.”
• Switch up the colors: Change the candy melt color or sprinkles to match any party theme, holiday, or event.
• Let them fully set: Allow the pretzels to harden completely before moving or storing so the toppings stay in place.
• Storage tip: Store finished pretzel treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.

1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
