If you are in need of some baseball themed snacks I have the perfect sweet treat for you! Baseball Pretzel Bites are just another addition to my Pretzel Bite collection! Sweet, salty and cute to boot! Perfect for little league celebrations, treats or for game day! Go Cards!
It’s no secret I am a huge fan of these and always recommend making a double batch. You might not listen to me and then after you eat the whole first batch yourself you will need to make another and wish you had listened to me to start with! {wink}
These snacks are a perfect baseball party food idea. They can be used for your kid’s teams or for when you get together to watch your favorite MLB team as well! *cough, cough…St. Louis Cardinals…cough, cough*
Baseball Pretzel Bites Supplies:
- Bite Size Pretzels
- Wilton Candy Melts in White (Use Yellow if you need these for softball!)
- Red Wilton Food Writer Pen
(If you happened to like my Basketball Pretzel Bites then you can get the pack of 4 Food Writers. That pack has both red and black markers!)
The process is the same on how to make pretzel bites:
Single Layer of Pretzels on a cookie sheet.
Then add a white candy melt on top of each pretzel.
Then bake for 7-10 minutes. You will want the candy melts to melt onto the pretzels however not get so melted that they lose their circle shape.
Once they come out you will want to let them cool completely.
So with your red food writer you will want to draw the baseball seams and stitches on.
TIP: To get the best results from the pen on the candy melt. Your candy melt needs to be completely solid. Place in freezer for 10 minutes before you start to write.
Below you can see the difference. The sketchy side is when they were just solid from sitting on the counter. The nice clean side was after I popped them in the freezer for a few
Now you are ready to eat…I mean share some super cute Pretzel Bites that are perfect for any Baseball lover!

Hi Katie, I linked to them in the post in the supply list to order online or I normally pick them up at JoAnns, Michael’s or Hobby Lobby.

How far in advance can you make these for a party?
Cheryl Spangenberg says
Hi Sarah, I’d say they would last a week in an airtight container.
Karen says
Can you freeze these?
Cheryl Spangenberg says
I do not recommend freezing them. Freezing the candy melts is not recommended as it will change the water content, cosistency and flavor. Store in an airtight container.
