Cute and simple conversation heart pretzels for a Valentine’s Day treat.
Valentine’s Day Pretzels
Food Crafts are some of my favorite foods to create. They always add a level of fun to any party. Whether it be Snowman Hat Cookies for a winter treat or Colorful Chocolate Dipped Spring Pretzels
Are you a Conversation Heart Fan? My kids can’t get enough of them. When I have a food craft idea with Conversation Hearts, I must hide it. Even then, I usually find an empty bag. They are relentless – I tell ya’. Luckily, I found enough Conversation Hearts to make these fun Conversation Hearts Chocolate Pretzels for a Fun Valentine’s Treat.
You could easily switch out the chocolate color. Red or purple would be a great substitution for the pink.

Supplies Needed
1 (12 oz.) bag of melting chocolates should make about 40 pretzel treats
- Melting Chocolate – I prefer Wilton.
- Conversation hearts
- Mini Pretzel Twists
- Wax Paper
- Silicone Spatula
- Glass – microwave-proof bowl
Instructions:
- Melt your chocolate melts according to the package directions
- *I like to pop them in the microwave for 1 minute, stir and then pop it back in for 30 seconds longer – stir until smooth
- Grab your wax paper and place it on your work surface
- Set your pretzels out on the wax paper
- Get your conversation hearts ready to go
- Now…
- Spoon about one small spoonful of chocolate into the pretzel – you can spread it out and even fix mistakes with a toothpick – if needed.
- Place a conversation heart on top of the melted chocolate
- You’ll want to do one pretzel at a time. If you wait too long in between pretzels, your chocolate will set up, and the candy won’t stick.
- *If that happens, just use your handy dandy toothpick to grab some melted chocolate out of your bowl and dab some on the back of the candy to glue it
That’s it! Repeat until you have your desired amount.
Happy Valentines Day!
