How to make these back to school themed treats

Get the detailed back to school treats recipe and instructions on Wilton here. I used a Wilton Mini Loaf Pan (affiliate link) which helped make the treats the perfect uniform size, but you can also make them in a 9X13 oblong pan and trim into individual pieces.

To make these back to school treat ideas even easier, I recommend using Wilton’s Candy Melt Tubs, where you can melt the candy directly in the container and then dip the treats right into it. But of course, you can also melt bagged Candy Melts the traditional way in a bowl or the Candy Melts Melitng Pot (affiliate link) too.

A trick to get the Candy Melts nice and flat on the notebeook paper school themed treats is to add a thick layer of the candy, then place them candy side down on a piece of wax or parchment paper until hardened.
