Tips to Make Unicorn Party Food

  • First, the obvious thing you need NEED is these adorable unicorn icing decorations. You have to–these are barely even unicorn cookies without these adorable toppers, seriously.
  • The second cool thing that you need is the colorburst candy melts. They’re SO COOL–I had no idea they were even a thing until I saw them in the store. I mean, there’s nothing saying you can’t do blue or pink or white candy melts on the bottom–but those little bursts of color are so cute!
  • Something else to remember is that, when you’re making these easy unicorn candy cookies, you don’t have to wait until the bottom layer of candy melts is set before you can move on to doing the top layers of candy melts–and then you don’t have to wait for those drizzles to harden before putting on the icing. This is a super-quick assemble and that’s just awesome!
