Ingredients:
Tools:
- Plastic/Silicone bowl
- Spatula
- Parchment paper
- Cakepop sticks
Instructions:
- Create the Shamrock Shape:
Begin by grabbing three pretzels & arranging them in the shape of a shamrock. One on top & one on each side. Feeling lucky? Add a fourth pretzel! - Melt your Sweet Shoppe Spring Green Melting Wafers:
Follow the melting instructions provided for the Sweet Shoppe Spring Green Melting Wafers. - Create your Shamrock Shape:
Once your melting wafers are melted down to a smooth consistency, dip just the sides of one of your pretzels & attach it to the other two pretzels to form a shamrock shape. Add a bit of melting wafers to the edges for extra support. Dip a cake pop stick into the melted wafers & lay it flat on top of the pretzels. Allow it to dry, securing the shamrock onto the stick. - Coat with Melting Wafers:
Once dry, dip the shamrock pretzel into your melted Sweet Shoppe Spring Green Melting Wafers, tapping off any excess. Lay it flat on parchment paper or place in a cakepop stand to dry. - Create a Marble Effect:
Melt your Sweet Shoppe Forest Green Melting Wafers & add melting coating to a piping bag. Drizzle the Sweet Shoppe Forest Green over your melted Sweet Shoppe Spring Green. Dip your shamrock pretzel into the coating ensuring a smooth, consistent coating. Gently rotate the cakepop stick from side to side as you remove your treat to create a beautiful marble finish. - Let Them Shine:
Allow your Shamrock Pretzel Sticks to dry completely. Once set, they are ready to steal the show at your St. Patrick's Day celebration.
