GRADUATION CAPS !!!



GRADUATION CAPS !!! image

These delightful and edible Graduation Caps have been a favorite of ours for years... We started making them before there were mini peanut butter cups... the mini ones are much nicer. We use them to decorate cakes, put trays of them out on the sweet table, decorate with them, use as party favors..... But our favorite thing to...

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

GRADUATION CAPS
3 pkg hershey's milk chocolate candy bars (6 pack, 9.3 ounces)
1 pkg reese's peanut butter cups (miniatures, 19.75 ounces)
1 pkg twizzlers pull 'n' peel candy (14 ounces)
1 pkg chocolate almond bark (14 ounces)
ADDITIONAL ITEMS NEEDED
2 pkg wilton lollipop sticks (50 - 4-inch sticks)
1 pkg mainstays bamboo skewers (100-pack)
2 pkg wilton treat bags (50 - 3x4-inch bags) (this size bag just barely works... i think a little larger bag would be safer to the hats and make it a bit quicker to bag up...)
clear tape, or curling ribbon, or anything else you desire to secure the bags closed

Steps:

  • 1. Melt the chocolate almond bark in a double boiler. Peel all wrappers off of the miniature peanut butter cups. Unwrap the Hershey's chocolate bars, carefully snap them off into 2 section squares (one candy bar will make 4 squares and there will be a row left over to save for future uses.... or nibble away now!)
  • 2. Line a baking sheet with wax paper. Place the Hershey's chocolate squares flat side down on the wax paper. Dip the bottom of a peanut butter cup into the chocolate bark, set it onto a Hershey's square. Repeat this process until all are done. Let them set to harden.
  • 3. Turn each of the candies over with the flat side of the Chocolate square on top and the peanut butter cup on the bottom.
  • 4. Cut the Twizzlers into desired length to form tassels for the Graduation Caps (1-1/2 inches). Pull the strands apart. Dip the tips of the Twizzlers into the chocolate bark and place onto the top of the Graduation Caps. Repeat until all are done. Let sit to allow chocolate bark to harden.
  • 5. Either use the Wilton Lollipop Sticks or the Mainstays Bamboo Skewers as the sticks.... (if using skewers, use the flat end to poke into candy... and use the pointed end to put in arrangements) Put the stick of choice into the peanut butter cup part of the Graduation Cap. Take a Wilton's Treat Bag and put the Graduation Cap inside. At this point, you can use clear tape, curling ribbon or other devise to secure the bag closed. Repeat until all are done.
  • 6. *** These can be used as a decoration on a food table, as a party favor, or as a graduation gift! My photos show some possibilities, *** Plastic Vases, rocks, marbles and paper grass. (all from dollar store ... rocks from hardware store). *** We make the vases up for a graduate, put in the Graduation Caps (as in photo), we present this to the graduate instead of roses... sometimes we add a couple balloons.

Its more of a technique then a recipe lol but I just had to share it : )

Categories     Candies

Number Of Ingredients 5

- 1 bag reeses miniatures
- 3 bags ghirardelli milk chocolate squares
- white decorating icing in tube
- fruit roll ups (cut into thin slices to serve as tassles on the caps)
- lollipop sticks

Steps:

  • Open the milk chocolate squares and line up on clean tray
  • open the reeses miniatures and using the white icing from tube "glue" a reeses cup to the middle of each milk chocolate square (the smallest end should be glue to the side of the square that is not smooth, so that the smooth side becomes the top of the graduation cap)
  • Add a dot of icing to the top of each cap. (only do a few at a time so the icing does not have time to harden)
  • Now add a piece of the fruit roll up to the dot of icing and then add another dot to the top to cover where the roll up is "glued" to the cap. (this serves as the tassle)
  • VERY GENTLY push a lollipop stick into the bottom of the reeses cup
  • Display or wrap in decorative cookie bags and tie with ribbon to use as favors
