Total Time 1 hour hr 30 minutes mins
- 48 mini pretzels
- 24 pretzel sticks
- 1 cup pink melting candy
- 1 cup light blue melting candy
- 1 cup yellow melting candy
- 1 cup orange melting candy
- Rainbow sprinkles
Melt each color of candy according to the package directions.
Spoon about two tablespoons of each color into separate piping bags and set aside.
Dip the pretzel twists and pretzel sticks into the melted candy until coated. Remove with a fork and let the excess candy drip off.
Place matching pretzel twists together on parchment paper to form butterfly wings.
Decorate half of the wings with rainbow sprinkles before the candy hardens.
Warm the candy in the piping bags if needed. Pipe a line down the center of each butterfly and press a coated pretzel stick into place.
Decorate the remaining butterflies with drizzled candy.
Allow the candy coating to harden completely before serving.
- Dip matching pretzels together for butterfly wings that coordinate.
- Work with one candy color at a time to keep it easy to manage.
- Let the candy harden completely before moving the butterflies.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature or fridge.
