DIY Custom Dessert Pretzels – Dessert Table
As many of you know it a big trend now to custom color your desserts or treats to your party theme? So, in the spirit of the “color themed” dessert table – in this case matchy, matchy is in not out! {I watch too much Project Runway!} This is a super easy way to do just that!
DIY Custom Dessert Pretzels – Dessert Table
Supplies
Bag or container of White Yogurt Dipped Pretzels
Colored Candy Melts
Plastic squeeze bottle found in baking supplies – mine is Wilton
Foil
Simply tear off a large piece of foil and spread out your yogurt pretzels.
You can either melt your colored candy melt in the microwave or in a double boiler saucepan. When using the microwave, I would set the time in 1 minute increments, stirring in-between each minute until melted. Then carefully poor the hot chocolate into the plastic bottle. I will warn you the bottle will be hot to touch. I placed a paper towel around the bottle when using it.
With a fluid motion, drizzle the chocolate back and forth, over the pretzels. I let the chocolate harden for a couple of hours, then layered the pretzels in a plastic container until party day. I used wax paper between each layer of pretzels to keep them from sticking together. They looked perfect!

Love-love these, I’ve made these for Christmas a lot, but I’ve never even thought of using the decorating bottle, or making them for holidays other than Christmas 😉

I have done a very similar thing, but color my own white candy melts in the colors as I need them.. Love the color green. They are perfect for St Patty’s!!
I have also done this for baby showers using animal crackers!. http://thepearsonfamilee.blogspot.com/2011/04/frosted-animal-crackers-custom-colors.html
Visiting you from Yvonne’s blog! :}
I dipped pretzels for Valentine’s Day treats. Such an easy fun thing to do. Like the idea of using the squeeze bottle to drizzle the color. I used a fork. This looks easier and less messy. ~ Sarah
Oh boy! I was looking for something like this to use as a cupcake topper for these Guinness and Cream Cheese Cupcakes… how wonderfully cute!
