I made a couple of these as a surprise treat for my little guy’s lunch on Friday but he seen it when he came home from school yesterday and he loved it so much he asked me to make them for his class….how could I say no! So today I made 25 more of them and printed a little tag to hang off the lollipop that says Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss.
These were really easy to make. I just used white chocolate candy melts from Michael’s, melted them down and piped them into an egg shape and added a green M&M for the yolk. I actually went out today to get green candy melts because I thought they would look much better but was advised by my “customer” (my son) that the m&m was a better idea!
I printed out the tags on white paper and glued them to card stock cut to fit. I’ve even included the tags as a free printable at the end of this post. I made mine to say Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss since we are sending them in on Dr. Seuss’ birthday but for the printable I left some blank, some just say Happy Birthday and some say the above so you can use them in different ways.
Once you glue them, they should look like this:
Then I just hole punched the top and tied them on with ribbon. Easy peasy!
When they are done they should look like this:
I picked up these adorable containers from Target’s dollar spot over the summer….I hope they bring them back this year!!
This little bucket came from there too and so did the pin and I just attached it with some ribbon
