Melt white chocolate in short 20-30 second intervals, stirring between each, to prevent seizing and ensure smooth, glossy coating that sets beautifully on the pretzel bones.

Bake pretzel sticks at 275°F for 3-5 minutes before dipping to reduce moisture and create better chocolate adhesion while maintaining crunch.

Place finished bones on parchment paper rather than wax paper—it prevents sticking and makes removal effortless once the chocolate fully sets.

Press mini marshmallows into the white chocolate immediately after dipping while still warm and tacky, ensuring they stay centered and secure as the coating cools.

Place finished pretzel bones in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes to set chocolate quickly, then bring to room temperature for the best texture and appearance.
