How Early Can I Decorate the Pretzels?
The Versatility of Halloween Party Decorated Pretzels
- First I’ll add the obvious and that is to simply put them in a jar and place them on the dessert table.
- Use a serrated knife and cut off the pretzel rods, decorate pretzels and place them around the outside of a frosted layered cake. BAM!
- Hand out as party favors. You can purchase cellophane bags made specifically for pretzels. Add a thank you tag and you’re set!
- Create a centerpiece! Fill containers (like jars or buckets) with the decorated pretzels and line them down the center of a table. Perfect for a kids Halloween party!
