Frequently Asked Questions

Where Can I Find the Bunny Feet?

We found the bunny feet on Amazon — they are usually called Bunny Feet Icing Decorations or something similar. I’ve linked to them in the ingredient list near the top of the post (they do seem to sell out quickly though!)

You may also be able to find these in the the baking section at your grocery store or in the specialty food section of a craft store like Michael’s or Hobby Lobby.

Do These Bunny Pretzels Need to Be Refrigerated?

No, these pretzel treats should not be kept in the refrigerator, as this can actually dry out the pretzels and the marshmallows quickly.

I recommend storing in an airtight container at room temperature, or in a slightly cool place. The pantry or countertop should be fine, as long as it is away from heat or light sources.
