• Edible gold or yellow glitter (for extra sparkle)
• Freezer-safe piping bags or plastic sandwich bags
• Silicone baking mats or parchment paper
• Optional: edible lightning bolt decorations for topping

3. Step-by-Step Instructions

Preparing the Pretzels

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the pretzels on a silicone baking mat or parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
2. Bake the pretzels for about 5-7 minutes until they are slightly warm but not toasted. Remove and set aside to cool.

Coloring the Candy Melts

1. While pretzels are cooling, melt the orange candy melts according to package instructions. Repeat with the yellow melts in separate bowls.
2. Pour the melted candy into piping bags or plastic bags for easy decorating.

Decorating with Lightning Effects

1. Pipe lightning bolt shapes across the pretzels with the yellow candy melts, mimicking flashes of lightning in the sky.
2. Add streaks of orange candy melts over the yellow bolts to give a more dynamic, lightning-like appearance.
3. Use white chocolate to add small spark effects for an even more electrifying look.
4. Sprinkle with edible glitter to add some shimmering energy!

Cooling and Setting

1. Allow the decorated pretzels to cool and the candy melts to set completely, about 20-30 minutes at room temperature.
2. For quicker setting, place the pretzels in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes.

4. Storage Tips

Store the Lightning Bolt Pretzels in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer freshness, place them in the refrigerator, but keep in mind that the candy melts may become slightly sticky if exposed to moisture.
