What You Need:
Rainbow Twizzlers
Cutting Board
Rolos
Sandwich Fold Top Baggies
Jute or Ribbon of your choice
Scissors
Instructions
Lay and place one of each color licorice on a clean cutting board.
With a sharp knife cut right down the center, to create 2 batches of mini rainbows.
Separate the two batches and start by bending the bottom piece of licorice (the purple one). Then add the next color on top of that by bending and lightly smooching together.
Repeat with all colors. Work from bottom up.
Once your mini rainbow is together, grab the sandwich baggie placing the whole rainbow inside, still kind of shaping it into a rainbow. (If it’s not perfect don’t worry they still turn out beautiful). Your placement of the rainbow will be at bottom of baggie, leaving the opening to tie later on.
After you place the mini rainbow inside the baggy, place 5 rolos under the mini rainbow. Not only do the rolos look like a little pot of gold, it helps keep the shape of your mini rainbow.
Then pinch the opening baggie by twisting it slightly.
Cut a piece of ribbon or jute and tie the opening of baggy giving it a finished look.
Lastly, shape your mini licorice rainbow more, while in baggie, if you feel you need to.
There ya have it…SUPER EASY, SUPER CUTE, and SOOO YUMMY!
