Steps:
- Begin by drawing a snowflake on a white piece of paper, about 2 - 3 inches in diameter. You don't want to make them too big as they'll overwhelm the cupcake and may have trouble standing upright.
- Melt the chocolate in a microwave safe bowl for 20 seconds. Stir and microwave again in increments of 10 seconds until completely melted, stirring in between.
- Place melted chocolate into your piping container of choice. When piping the chocolate, it should slightly warm, but not hot. The hotter the chocolate it, the more quickly it will flow out of the bag. If it is too cool, it will clog the hole (ask me how I know). Should that happen, run the bag under some warm water to start it flowing again and wipe the excess water off with a paper towel.
- Cut a small hole in the bottom or corner of the bag.
- Place a piece of wax paper over the snowflake pattern.
- Trace over the pattern with the chocolate.
- Sprinkle shimmer sugar over the snowflake immediately after.
- Transfer to a baking sheet to harden and refrigerate if possible.
- Snowflakes will be a bit sturdier and there for easier to peel if refrigerated before using.
- Gently peel from wax paper and place onto frosted cupcake or cake.

Steps:
- Put a sheet of baking parchment or a non-stick tray liner on a baking tray. Melt the chocolate or candy melts carefully in a microwave or in a bowl set over a pan of simmering water - don't let any water get into the bowl or allow the base of it to touch the water. Turn off the heat but leave the bowl on the pan. Add the pretzels and stir well.
- Lift the pretzels out of the chocolate with a fork, shaking them a little so the excess chocolate drips off, then put them on the tray and in the freezer for 5 mins to set. Dip the pretzels in the chocolate again, then lay four at a time together on the tray and push them together, with the pointy ends in the centre, to make a snowflake shape. Add a blob more chocolate with the end of a teaspoon in the middle of each snowflake so they hold together when set. Before they set, decorate with the sprinkles. Leave somewhere cold to set completely - you can use the freezer if you want to speed up the process.
- If you want to make the pretzel snowflakes into lollipops, melt the extra 50g chocolate as before and make eight well-spaced blobs, the size of a 1p coin, on some non-stick liner. Put a paper lolly stick on each blob so one end is in the chocolate, then press a pretzel snowflake gently on top and leave somewhere cold to set. Will keep for one to two days in a cool place.
