1

Unroll fruit flavored snacks; remove paper.
2

Fold Sizzling Red/Yellow fruit flavored snack in half so the yellow is folded over the red to create an orange color. Gently stretch the folded fruit flavored snack before cutting in half horizontally, to create 2 orange strips.
3

Roll up each marshmallow in an orange fruit flavored snack strip to cover sides and tops. Press open ends of fruit flavored snack together to cover marshmallow.
4

Cut 2 leaves from the Blazin’ Blue/Green fruit flavored snack. Insert 1 of the pretzel pieces and leaf on top of each marshmallow to make stem and leaf of pumpkin.
5

Insert lollipop stick into bottom of each marshmallow. Decorate side of each marshmallow with black icing to look like a jack-o-lantern face.

Expert Tips

Nutrition is estimated based on partial portion of fruit flavored snack products used.
Instead of using lollipop sticks, place these pumpkins on top of store-bought brownie bites, or create a pumpkin patch by placing the pumpkins on top of crushed chocolate cookies!
If you can find them, use orange Fruit Roll-Ups® fruit flavored snacks that are sold in some stores--Cherry Orange Wildfire® or Punch Berry®.
