Total Time:1 hour 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 12 oz white candy melts
  • 2 oz black candy melts
  • 2 oz purple candy melts
  • 2 oz bright green candy melts
  • 2 oz orange candy melts
  • 1/2 cup candy corn
  • mini pretzels lightly crushed/broken
  • 2-3 Tbsp Halloween sprinkles

Instructions

  • Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • Melt the white candy melts in 30-second intervals in the microwave, stirring until smooth. Spread the mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet, making it about 1/4 inch thick.
  • Melt each of the colored candy melts separately. Transfer them to piping bags or zip-top bags with the corners snipped.
  • Pipe the colors over the white base in zig-zag lines. Use a butter knife to swirl the colors together into a marbled design.
  • Immediately top with candy corns, pretzel pieces, and sprinkles. Press lightly to stick.
  • Let the bark sit at room temperature for 1-2 hours or refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Break into pieces and store in an airtight container until ready to serve.

Notes

  • Swap candy melts with almond bark, baking chocolate, or white chocolate chips. Use oil-based or gel coloring only.
  • Make up to 3–4 days in advance and store in an airtight container.
  • Change toppings for other holidays; peppermint and red/green sprinkles for Christmas, pastel colors for Easter, or hearts for Valentine’s Day.
  • Replace pretzels with popcorn, crushed cookies, or graham crackers for a different crunch.
