Pretzel Wreaths


  • Author: OliviaBennett

Description

Here’s the treat that checks every holiday box—adorable, giftable, sweet, salty, and so easy. These edible wreaths need no oven time, just a little dipping, sprinkling, and bow-tying. They’re perfect for cookie trays, homemade gifts, or a fun kitchen project with kids. Get ready to make a snack that looks straight out of a bakery but takes just minutes to pull together!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 bag mini pretzels (not snaps)

  • 1 cup green candy melts (or white chocolate + gel food coloring)

  • Twizzlers Pull & Peel (for bows)

  • Holiday sprinkles of choice

  • Parchment paper


Instructions

  • Prep: Line a baking sheet with parchment. Have all ingredients ready.

  • Melt Coating: Microwave candy melts in 20-sec bursts, stirring until smooth. Add 1 tsp coconut oil if needed for fluidity.

  • First Layer: Dip pretzels into coating, shake off excess, and arrange 6–7 in a circle on parchment.

  • Second Layer: Repeat, layering more coated pretzels on top to build a full, sturdy wreath.

  • Decorate: While still wet, add sprinkles generously.

  • Add Bow: Separate two Twizzler strands, shape into a bow, and press onto the wreath with a dab of melted candy “glue.”

  • Set: Let rest 15–20 min at room temp or 5–7 min in the fridge until firm.

Notes

  • Peppermint Pop: Use dark chocolate + crushed candy canes.

  • Winter Wonderland: White melts + blue/silver sprinkles.

  • Nutty Crunch: Add chopped pecans or peanuts before the candy sets.

  • Allergy-Friendly: Use gluten-free pretzels + dairy-free candy coating.
