I love making up my own recipes and I have no idea how I came up with this one. My sons like candy canes,pop rocks and marshmallows. I decided to put them together and this is what I came up with. I brought some into work and really didn't think anyone would really like them but they were a huge hit! I will be making these again for the holidays. Sometimes, a weird or crazy idea can turn out to be a winner! Hope you make some and enjoy.

    `Sauce Pan method for the almond bark-Place desired amount in sauce pan. Melt over very low heat about 8 minutes stirring until smooth.Note: Do not overheat. Overheating will cause product to scorch or caramelize. Use only dry utensils for melting or stirring. Moisture could cause the coating to solidify or seperate.

    Take your pan to the counter top with other ingredients that are set aside.
