Melt candy melts: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the blue candy melts according to the package directions. Be careful not to overheat them.

Dip and decorate: Dip the end of each Rice Krispies Pop (without the stick) into the melted candy. Allow any excess to drip off. Place the pops on a sheet of parchment paper and immediately sprinkle with blue sprinkles.

Customize Your Crispy Rice Cereal Pops!

  • Colors: Swap out the blue candy melts for other colors to match your theme. White, pink, or yellow are also popular choices.

  • Shapes: Use cookie cutters to cut the Rice Krispies treats into fun shapes like stars, hearts, or even shark fins!
  • United States Patriotic Holidays: Use red, blue and white sprinkles for patriotic holidays like Memorial Day or the Fourth of July.
