Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 10 large marshmallows
- 10 lollipop sticks
Coating and Decoration:
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) pink melting candy
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) white melting candy
- 1/4 cup (60 milliliters) mini marshmallows
Finishing Touches:
- 1/4 cup (60 milliliters) edible glitter or sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
- Pierce each marshmallow with a lollipop stick, ensuring firm attachment and stability.
- Utilize a microwave-safe container to gently liquefy white confectionery coating, stirring at 30-second intervals until achieving a silky consistency.
- Delicately immerse each marshmallow into the melted white coating, covering approximately half the surface, then position on parchment paper for cooling and solidification.
- After white coating sets completely, warm pink confectionery coating and dip marshmallow tops to craft distinctive bunny ear shapes.
- Attach miniature marshmallows at the base using a small dollop of pink coating to create an adorable bunny tail effect.
- For enhanced visual appeal, dust the marshmallow pops with shimmering edible glitter or festive sprinkles.
- Allow treats to fully solidify at room temperature for approximately 15-20 minutes before serving or packaging.
Notes
- Stick Placement Matters: Push lollipop sticks gently but firmly into marshmallows to prevent wobbling during decorating.
- Melting Magic: Use low microwave power and short intervals to prevent candy coating from burning or becoming lumpy.
- Temperature Control: Allow melted candy to cool slightly before dipping to achieve a smoother, more even coating on marshmallows.
- Decorative Alternatives: Swap edible glitter with colored sugar or crushed candy for different texture and visual appeal, making these treats customizable for various celebrations.
