Bumble Bee Pretzels & Oreos

Before I left for Boston I was asked to make some treats for a friend baby's 1st birthday.  She found bumble bee's and lady bug's she wanted done.  I saw them on Etsy for the Bumble Bee Pretzels for $90 and the Bumble Bee Oreo's for $23 and thought what the heck.  BUT this is where I EAT my words.  They are time consuming and your back and hand will hurt when done .. lol BUT they are so cute.  I did Lady Bugs also and just charged my friend some of what I paid for the supplies. 

Bumble Bee Oreo's

Oreo's (I used Birthday Cake Flavor)

Yellow Candy Melts

Black Candy Melts

Candy Eyes

Small Heart Candy Decorations

Small Flower Candy Decorations

Wilton Chocolate Candy Dipper Spoon

Pipping Bag

I have 2 glass bowls from pamper chef that I melt my melts in the microwave for 1 min 30 secs, be careful not to go to long it will BURN done it believe me. Take an Oreo and place in the yellow Melts.  Use the Candy spoon to take the oreo out of the melts.  The slots in the spoon make the extra chocolate come off.  Place on parchment paper and let it set up.  I put mine in the fridge.  Once they were set up I dipped half of the yellow coated cookie into black melts, before the black has harden add the eyes, small heart for mouth and flower.  I took a throw away bag (you can use a ziplock bag if needed) and melted some black melts and did the strips.
