I tried these… and they looked cute, but they were actually kind of difficult to eat!!!

I made these for my daughters kindergarten Christmas party…. and they were a hit!! Everyone thought they were so cute. It’s nice to have something other that cookies as a party treat! Thanks!

Here’s my experience with these. I couldn’t find any colors of melting chocolate or almond bark other than white. So, and here’s where I reveal my ignorance, I bought food coloring and decided to dye one bowl of it red, and another green. What I didn’t know was that any liquid will harden the chocolate. So…. we dipped the marshmallows in white only, and used Christmas cookie sprinkles. The kids didn’t know the difference and didn’t care. I did this with 8 kids, ages 3 to 10. They had a blast.

Rhoswen – Thanks for the exacto knife hint!
Angie – These are so fun. Made some for “stirrers” to go with my homemade hot cocoa mix for gifts. Festive way to perk up the packaging.

Oh how cute! I might do these when I have a cookie baking party for my daughters and a few of their friends next weekend.

These are adorable! I’m all for covering things in chocolate.

This will sound a little weird, but if I’m trying to open candy canes for things like this, I’ve found an Excato knife works great. Just slit the plastic along the “spine” and peel off gently. I’ll still break one or two, but fewer than any of the other ways I’ve tried.
