Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by placing your green candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring well until smooth and glossy. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
  2. Carefully dip each mini pretzel twist into the melted candy, ensuring full coating. Use a fork to tap off excess candy, allowing it to drip back. Place on parchment paper and repeat.
  3. To form the wreath, take six dipped pretzels and arrange them in a circle on parchment paper, ensuring they touch. Add another layer of six pretzels on top, slightly overlapping.
  4. Sprinkle colorful festive sprinkles over the top while the candy is still tacky for adherence. Use themed shapes for added fun.
  5. Twist the red Twizzlers Pull-Apart into a bow and place it at the top of the wreath.
  6. Allow the wreaths to cool at room temperature for 20-30 minutes until the candy melts have hardened.
