These Halloween Marshmallow Pops are a fun, easy treat made by dipping marshmallows on sticks into orange candy coating, then adding a yellow top layer. The result is a festive two-tone look perfect for parties or gifting. With options to melt candy wafers in the microwave or Instant Pot, the process is simple and mess-free.

Directions

Push a sucker stick into each marshmallow, inserting about three-quarters of the way through to hold it securely.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper so the finished pops won't stick.

Melt the orange candy wafers using one of these methods: Microwave: Heat in a tall bowl for 30 seconds, stir, heat another 30 seconds, stir, then heat in 15-second intervals stirring until smooth. Instant Pot: Add 2 cups water to the pot, place a glass bowl with wafers on top, press Sauté, stir occasionally with a silicone spatula until melted, then switch to Keep Warm.

Dip a marshmallow pop into the orange coating, covering about three-quarters of the marshmallow and leaving the top white. Let excess drip off and shake gently, then set on the parchment.

Repeat the orange dip for all 20 marshmallows.

Melt the yellow candy wafers using your preferred method, again using a tall bowl or mug.

Take the first orange-dipped pop (it should be dry) and dip the top quarter into the yellow coating so a thick orange ring remains visible. Place back on parchment.

Repeat the yellow dip for all pops and let them harden completely.

Store or gift the finished pops in plastic bags—Wilton cake pop bags, candy apple bags, or sandwich baggies all work well.
