How to Make A Cute Valentines Day Marshmallow Pop Favor
by Karissa Goss, Piece of Cake Events

These would be a great favor to make at your kids school party. They are easy to make, inexpensive, and fun enough that kids will remember it. You can also customize these for different party themes and holidays.

Valentines Day Marshmallow Pops

What you’ll need:

  • 20 Large Marshmallows
  • 20 Lollipop Sticks (found at Walmart)
  • Pink Candy Melts (you can find at Michael’s, or A.C. Moore)
  • Valentine Sprinkles or Pink and White Sprinkles
  • 20 clear plastic Valentines Day goodie bags
  • Pink, red or white ribbon
  • Valentines day  card or label

How to make:

Melt Candy Melts according to package. Push one marshmallow on top of lollipop stick. Dip Marshmallows (either the whole marshmallow or just half way) and spin off excess candy melt. Then Sprinkle, Sprinkle, Sprinkle! Set the pops upright in a tall drinking glass and stick in the fridge for about 5 minutes to set.

To assemble: 

Take a Valentines day card or label and punch a hole in the corner. Have your child write his name on the card or label (From Andy) and string the pink, red, or white ribbon through the hole. Take the pops out of the fridge. Place on goodie bag over the marshmallow (the stick will be sticking out of the bag) Tie with your pretty ribbon and card/label.
