Pretzel Stick Snowmen #DIY #RECIPE



Ingredients:
·         Large pretzel logs
·         White chocolate candy melt
·         Gummy Life Saver candy
·         Gum drops
·         Fruit leather (cut into ¼” – ½” strips)
·         Black decorating gel

·         Orange sprinkles

Begin by preparing the gummy top hats. Carefully stretch the gummy Life Saver over the rounded end of the gum drop.  Pull it far enough up that it will not slip off but leave a generous amount of gum drop exposed.



Heat candy melt in microwave for approximately 45 seconds, stir until smooth.  Carefully spoon the candy melt over ½ of each pretzel.  Add gummy hat and the orange sprinkle for the nose while the candy melt is still soft and this will set them in place. 



After all hats and noses are attached and candy melt has begun to harden, add the fruit leather scarf.  Wrap the strip around the pretzel from the back and twist towards one side of the front to secure it.

Using the black decorating gel, carefully dot 2 eyes, and several dots for mouth and buttons down the front of the body.

  20. He's salty, he's sweet, and pretty cute to boot. I had never seen or heard of decorating gel, so now I will be on a mission to find some. These would be really unique to add to a present. I could see wrapping each one in cellophane and tying them to the top with ribbon. I think people appreciate handmade gifts, and you know this is something they probably have not seen before. Like their most famous brother, Frosty, these little guys will disappear quickly.
