    I used a rainbow selection of candy melt colours as I had them leftover from various fun food projects but you can use any mixture of colours or just one colour if you prefer - I'd recommend green for a classic monster look!

    If you can't find candy melts (I buy mine from Amazon), brown or white giant chocolate buttons would work just as well instead.

    Be sure to check out my recipe video so you can see just how easy these are to make!
