My favorite holiday to make treats for is just around the corner… Valentine’s Day!!! I like making treats for all holidays but Valentine’s Day is my tops because it’s everything girly, sweet and floral. Plus all the little corny love notes that are spread around Valentine’s day are something I “heart” as well. LOL

Valentine Snack Mix is the perfect mix of salty and sweet! Add in some pre-made candy cake decorations, pretzels shaped like “XO” and don’t forget the heart shaped sprinkles too! Scroll down the page where I have a FREE PRINTABLE Valentine treat bag label too!

I was so excited that we found XOXO shaped pretzels at Walmart. They are only sold in store, but you can see what the box looks like here. Valentine Snack Mix is very versatile and you can sub in the flavors that you want to try. The ones I made are just a suggestion, but in my humble opinion this mix is amazing!

Valentine Snack Mix

Ingredients

1 package pink candy melts melted according to the package, you will need a candy piping bag or a ziploc bag for next step
1 bottle Valentine Sprinkles
2 cup Valentine XOXO Pretzels (or any plain small pretzels of choice)
3 cups popped popcorn (plain with just salt is best)
1 package Wilton red rose decorations for cakes (or any small flower candy decoration)
2 cups pink cereal (I used Kelloggs donut cereal)
1 cup chocolate cereal (I used Kelloggs crave cereal)
1 cup Valentine M&Ms
1/2 cup yogurt covered cranberries

Instructions

Mix everything together except the candy melts and sprinkles in a bowl. Spread the mixture evenly onto 2 large baking sheets or shallow containers. Take the melted candy and put it in your piping bag or ziplock bag and cut the end off one end to make a small hole where the candy melt can drizzle out. Drizzle the whole mixture and add sprinkles as you go so they will stick onto the candy. Let everything dry for a few minutes or until the candy is hardened. Transfer mixture into bags or a container to keep it in until serving. Will last covered for several days. Enjoy!
