Cutest things ever, I found an adorable idea on Pinterest, of course, for a treat to make for all the kids on Easter.
Here is the link to where I found the idea.
All you need is candy melts...
Yumm... I have found these at Hobby Lobby or Wal Mart or wherever there is fancy baking stuff. It comes in different colors which would look a lot better than just white but that would have required me to go to a completely different store. That day it was not happening.
You also need marshmallows...
Very pretty sprinkles...
some creepy marshmallow bunnies...
The last thing you will need are some sticks to put these precious things on.
I used these sticks...
I think they are for making cookie pops or something.
If you use regular kabob sticks then you can fit more marshmallows on them. However the kabob sticks have a pointed end and some of the kids that would be running around with these on Easter didn't really need pointed objects in their mouths. They would be fine for older kids or adults.
Here's the extremely detailed, difficult to understand directions.
> melt the candy melts per the directions on the bag (microwave for 1 minute then stir until it's all melted)
> dump out all your sprinkles into little individual bowls
> dip your marshmallows into the melted candy and then into sprinkles of your choice and place on wax paper
> once all your marshmallows have dried (it doesn't take long) then place them on the stick/kabob
> top it off with a poor little bunny who doesn't deserve that type of punishment :) sorry
> Let some cute kids finish off what's left
Just a couple tips...
- I did use a kabob with the pointy end to make a hole through the marshmallow before I put it on the pretty stick. It helped the finish product be not so messy.
- Be careful if you are trying to be healthy because marshmallows covered in candy and sprinkles are deliciously addicting.
- This will make a very pretty mess
Yours may or may not include robots.
Since these will be traveling I found some bags to place them in and contain the sprinkle mess.
