Tigger Tails Recipe


  • Author: Elara
  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 6 Tigger Tails 1x

Description

Tigger Tails are a fun and festive treat perfect for parties and themed celebrations. These marshmallow sticks are layered with gooey caramel, coated in vibrant orange candy melts, and finished with a drizzle of rich dark chocolate for a delightful combination of flavors and textures.


Ingredients

Scale

Marshmallow Layer

  • 24 large marshmallows
  • 4 candy sticks (for stacking marshmallows)

Caramel Coating

  • 1 bag caramel bits (11 oz.)

Orange Candy Coating

  • 1 bag orange candy melts (12 oz.)

Chocolate Drizzle

  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1/2 teaspoon coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Stack the marshmallows: Place 4 large marshmallows on each candy stick, creating a vertical stack to form the base of the Tigger Tail.
  2. Melt and coat with caramel: Melt the caramel bits according to package instructions, then let cool slightly to avoid melting marshmallows. Dip each marshmallow stack completely into the warm caramel, gently shaking off excess caramel. Lay the coated marshmallows on parchment paper and allow the caramel to harden, which takes about 15 minutes.
  3. Melt and coat with orange candy melts: Following package directions, melt the orange candy melts until just smooth and warm, not hot. Dip each caramel-coated marshmallow stack into the melted candy, covering them entirely. Shake off excess and place onto parchment paper again to let the candy shell harden.
  4. Prepare the chocolate drizzle: In a small bowl, combine dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring after each, until the mixture is fully melted and smooth. Using a spoon or food-grade squeeze bottle, drizzle the melted chocolate over the orange-coated marshmallows to create decorative patterns.
  5. Set and serve: Let the chocolate drizzle cool and fully harden before serving to maintain the perfect texture and presentation.

Notes

  • Be sure to allow each coating layer to fully harden before moving on to the next step to prevent colors and coatings from blending.
  • If you don’t have candy sticks, wooden skewers or lollipop sticks can be used instead.
  • Use parchment paper to prevent sticking during drying and make cleanup easier.
  • Dark chocolate chips can be substituted with semi-sweet or milk chocolate if preferred.
  • Store finished Tigger Tails in an airtight container at room temperature and consume within 2-3 days for best freshness.
