Instructions

Click to mark complete

1. - Melt your candy according to package instructions. If you're dipping pretzel rods, make sure your dipping container is tall enough to cover as much of the pretzel that you want covered in candy. If you're dipping pretzel twists, you can use a microwave-safe bowl or candy melting pot to melt your candy.
2. - Dip your pretzel rods into the melted candy. Tap pretzel on edge of container to smooth and remove excess candy. For pretzel twists, use the fork tool to dip your twists into the melted candy. Tap fork on edge of bowl or melting pot to remove excess candy.
3. - For added color, you can drizzle your pretzels with another color of Candy Melts candy. To do this, melt the second color of candy in a decorating bag or squeeze bottle. Drizzle over candy-coated pretzels. Chill until set, about 5 minutes. If you're adding sprinkles, nonpareils, nuts or other toppings to your pretzels, be sure to add them immediately after dunking your pretzels in the melted candy. Candy Melts set up fairly quickly, so you want to add any toppings before the candy sets.
