What You’ll Need
To make this simple pretzel rods recipe, you’ll need just need a few ingredients shown in the photo above. See the recipe card located at the bottom of the post for full details.
- Fruity Pebbles Cereal– I highly recommend using the Post brand cereal. Don’t get an off brand.
- Pretzel Rods– Sydney brand has great pretzel rods.
- Kraft Caramels– Find the wrapped caramels in the baking isle of the grocery store.
- Ghirardelli White Melts– Look for the white melts in the baking section of the grocery store.
How To Make Chocolate Dipped Pretzel Rods
Prepare Melted Caramel. Follow instructions on caramel packaging to melt caramel. Keep on warm heat, stirring often.
Dip Pretzels In Caramel. Dip each pretzel rod into melted caramel. I used a spoon to help spoon caramel on the bottom half of the pretzel. Place coated pretzel rods onto parchment paper. Let set up for 15 minutes.
Melt Ghirardelli Melts. Place Ghirardelli melts into a heat proof bowl and microwave in 30-45 second increments until melted and smooth. Takes up to 2 minutes according to your microwave. When melted and smooth stir in Fruity Pebbles until combined.
Remove Pretzel Rods From Parchment. CAREFULLY pull caramel coated pretzel rods downward from parchment. Do not try to pull straight up or pretzel rod WILL break. Trust me, I tried, lol! Just pull down nice and slow and it comes off of the parchment paper.
Dip Pretzels In Chocolate. Use a spoon to help coat pretzel rods with the white chocolate/cereal mixture. Place back onto parchment for about 5 minutes to slightly set up. Take each pretzel rod and dip/coat for a second time. don’t skip this step. Looks much better when dipped in white chocolate/cereal 2 times. Let double dipped pretzels set up for another 15 minutes, or until set. Transfer to a serving tray. Use a cellophane bag if desired to get the full effect of how they serve it at Bing Bong’s Sweet Stuff.
How To Serve
Serve pretzel rods with chocolate and caramel set up, room temperature. They’re great on any dessert table for any occasion.
Storage Instructions
To store any leftover pretzel rods, place into an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Welcome to my online kitchen! Picky Palate is where you’ll find family friendly recipes along with the best Disney eats, tips and copycat recipes! 
I noticed you like the Ghirardelli melting wafers, it it because you like the flavor more or tastes more like Disneyland’s treats? I have a more local company that sells almond bark(that I think is similar to this?) but if you think the ghirardelli is important to buy I would stick with that. Also can’t wait to try these. They will be next up on my list after the Churro Toffee!!
Any type of melting chocolate will work just fine Sarah 🙂
I would love to have these as take home treats at a birthday party! Do you know how far in advance you can make them?
I would say no more than one day in advance.
Hi! I was in Disneyland and I saw that they first dip the rods in caramel, then roll them in fruity pebbles (this may help with the issue of sticking to the parchment paper) and lastly they dip in the white chocolate. Hope this helps!!
It’s a copycat recipe, so that’s probably the look she’s going for. ? The nice thing about recipes is that you can interpret them however you want and make changes as you see fit. I like the milky rainbow colors personally, but I think it would be pretty the other way too! Try it out. ?
Has the look of an exclusive product. It looks delicious. I’d add some more chocolate chips.
Can’t wait to try these, I think they’ll be great for Valentine treats!
Yes! I’m sure I’ll make more for Valentine’s Day 🙂
Why not coat in white chocolate, and then roll in the fruity pebbles? Mixing them into the white chocolate loses most of the color, which is unfortunate.
You could totally do it that way if you’d rather. This is how it’s served at Bing Bong’s Sweet Stuff which is why I did it like this. The colorful Fruity Pebbles would be great too 🙂
