This colorful treat is extremely easy and a great filler to help decorate a party table. You can use any color combo of chocolates to coordinate with your theme and you can use pretzel rods or standard pretzels. I made these for the treat table that I recently did for an Ariel birthday party. To match the theme, I used the same mix of colors that I used for the Ariel chocolate cupcake toppers. I also made them for my son’s Train birthday party, stacked in one of the train cake cars.
