This time of year brings many fun parties and play dates. My children and I love making easy Halloween Pops to hand out to our friends. I first saw this idea around the Fourth of July here. I know that there are darling recipes for cake pops as well, but as I have admitted before, I am all about the easy, cute recipe. It takes about 10 minutes to make these, five to cool in the fridge, and five to wrap up! My kind of treat. Β What you will need:
- large marshmallows
- candy sticks {small or large}
- candy melts
- sprinkles
- mini candy bags if you choose to wrap them up
- curling ribbon
- a cute tin or bucket to put them in {sand to hold them in place}
Target must really love me because I canβt seem to get out of their dollar section without something I HAVE to have. These little tins are adorable. So many fun things you can do with them for Halloween. The kids can easily help by putting a stick into each marshmallow. Simply melt candy according to the directions on the package, dip each marshmallow {rotate to cover all sides} and immediately add sprinkles. I put them back in the pail with sand and stick them in the fridge to harden before covering {about 5 to 10 minutes}. Did these for the Fourth of July. The sand buckets worked out great. A fun treat to hand out while watching fireworks. Β The Halloween Pops would be adorable with good oleβ melted chocolate chips and orange sprinkles, too! Happy Halloween from our home to yours!

Megan {Honey We're Home} says
Those are really sweet! How did you make the labels for the 4th of July ones? It's so nice to add the extra touch of personalizing them. I can see these being great party favors at birthdays, etc.
Courtney {a thoughtful place} says
I made the tags on Microsoft Publisher. They are just printed on normal computer paper. I am big on personalizing when possible. I went to make them for the Halloween pops and my darn printer is out of ink. π I was thinking they would be cute for party favors as well. You can do so many color combinations with those candy melts. Happy Tuesday, everyone!
Michaela says
