Instructions

Prepare the Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Melt the White Candy: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white candy melts in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval until smooth and fully melted.
Spread the White Candy: Pour the melted white candy onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it into an even layer using a spatula. Aim for about 1/4 inch thickness.
Melt the Colored Candy Melts: In separate microwave-safe bowls, melt the orange, purple, green, and black candy melts in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval until smooth and fully melted.
Create the Swirls: Drop spoonfuls of each color of melted candy melts onto the white candy layer. Use a toothpick or skewer to swirl the colors together, creating a marbled effect.
Add Toppings: Immediately sprinkle the candy corns, broken pretzels, and Halloween-themed sprinkles over the swirled candy. Press the toppings gently into the candy to ensure they stick.
Set the Bark: Allow the bark to set at room temperature for about 1-2 hours, or place it in the refrigerator for quicker setting (about 30 minutes).
Break the Bark: Once fully set, break the bark into pieces using your hands or a knife.
Serve and Enjoy: Store the Halloween candy bark in an airtight container at room temperature. Enjoy your festive treat!
