Description
These adorable Pumpkin Marshmallow Lollipops are dipped in orange candy melts, decorated like mini pumpkins with pretzel stems and candy leaves, and make the perfect no-bake Halloween treat for parties, school events, or festive snacking.
Ingredients
Scale
- 12 large marshmallows
- 1 cup (about 170g) orange candy melts
- 12 lollipop sticks or paper straws
- 6 pretzel sticks, halved (for pumpkin stems)
- 24 mini green candy-coated chocolates (mini M&M’s or Sixlets)
- Optional: melted white or dark chocolate for detailing
Instructions
- Melt the Candy Coating: Place orange candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth.
- Prep the Marshmallows: Insert a lollipop stick or straw into each marshmallow without piercing the top.
- Dip the Marshmallows: Fully coat each marshmallow in melted candy, tapping off excess.
- Decorate Like a Pumpkin: While coating is wet, insert a pretzel piece as the stem and attach two green candies as leaves.
- Let Them Set: Place on parchment paper and allow to harden for about 20 minutes.
- Optional Details: Use melted chocolate to draw jack-o’-lantern faces or ridges.
- Serve & Enjoy: Display upright or wrap individually for gifting.
Notes
- Use fresh marshmallows for best texture.
- Work quickly when decorating — candy coating hardens fast.
- Store in a cool, dry place to prevent melting.
- Great as edible party favors or part of a Halloween dessert board.
