- Prepare Pretzel Bunnies: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place pretzel twists on the sheet and top each with a white candy melt.

- Decorate: Optional: brush ears with melted chocolate and sprinkle with pink sanding sugar. Allow to cool and set completely. Store in an airtight container.
