Fun to decorate with the entire family for St. Patrick’s Day gifting. Make them just a day ahead. Pretzels can go stale pretty quickly after being opened. This is a salty sweet treat perfect for snacking as well.

It’s best to place these dipped pretzels into a plastic ziplock bag or into a container that can be sealed. This will keep the pretzels fresh longer. I usually make the pretzel dipped rods a day before or the day of that I plan to serve them.
