Instructions
Break ½ inch off 20 of the pretzels and set aside.
Arrange the remaining pretzels in groups of 5.
Dip one pretzel in yellow candy melts, leaving top of pretzel un-coated.
Set on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
Dip and set 4 more pretzels next to the first one, creating the chick's body.
Immediately attach 2 candy eyes, 1 orange sunflower beak, and 2 sprinkle feet.
Freeze for about 5 minutes just until the candy coating hardens.
Repeat, creating 20 pretzel chicks.
Remove and allow to rest for 10 minutes.
Dip broken pretzels in blue candy melts, coating them completely.
Set on a parchment paper lined baking sheet, freeze until hardened.
Draw a green dot onto the center of each daisy sprinkle.
Dip the un-coated ends of the pretzel chicks into blue candy melts.
Set one blue pretzel over the bottom edge of the wet blue candy melts, creating a hat brim.
Attach one daisy sprinkle to the hat.
Freeze for 2-3 minutes until the blue candy coating hardens.
