Prep Time10 minutes mins
Setting Time20 minutes mins
Total Time30 minutes mins
- 10 twinkies
- 1 bag light cocoa candy melts
- 1 bag orange candy melts
- 1 bag bright white candy melts
- 20 Candy eyeballs
- 10 paper straws
Unwrap the Twinkies and get them ready for their spooky makeover.
Gently poke a paper straw into each one—don’t go all the way through!
Pop the Twinkies into the freezer for 10 minutes. It helps them hold their shape.
Melt your candy according to the package. Use a different bowl for each color.
Dip each Twinkie into the melted candy. Use a spoon to coat and smooth it all over.
Let the excess drip off on a wire rack, then move them to wax paper to set.
While the coating is still soft, add two candy eyes to each mummy.
Melt the white candy melts and drizzle across the Twinkies to make “bandages.”
Let them sit until everything is firm and set.
Serve, share, and enjoy!
- Freezing your Twinkies before dipping helps them stay firm and keeps the coating smooth and even.
- If your candy melts are too thick, stir in a little coconut oil or shortening to thin them out and give a nice glossy finish.
- Using a piping bag makes it easy to drizzle neat "bandages" without a mess.
- If you don't have a piping bag, use a plastic bag with a corner cut off
