Holiday treats that look like a craft project in the best possible way are my absolute favorite.

They’re bright, cheerful, kid-approved, and the perfect thing to make when you want a snack that earns instant smiles at parties, school events, or cozy movie nights.

Better yet, they’re super simple to build! Once you stack the marshmallows and add that tiny Rolo hat and scarf, they suddenly look like they walked right out of a snowy little storybook scene. Add a sprinkle of edible glitter, and it’s like giving your snowman a frosty twinkle.

How to Make Snowman Marshmallow Pops

These snowy cuties come together quickly and look absolutely adorable from every angle.

🥄 Kitchen Tools You’ll Need

• Skewers
• Microwave-safe bowl for melting chocolate
• Food-safe paintbrush
• Black Food marker
• Scissors for cutting scarves

Ingredients You’ll Need

Get everything ready so your snowman assembly line runs smoothly.

• Marshmallows
• Fruit by the Foot strips cut into tiny scarves
• Rolós
• Mini Oreos
• Black food marker
• Carrot sprinkles
• Mini M&Ms
• White edible glitter
• A little melted candy melts for attaching the hat and securing the skewer

Step-by-Step Instructions

This is one of those treats that looks like magic but takes only minutes to pull together.

Step 1: Prep the Stick

• Dip the very tip of the stick into melted candy melts. This helps it slide through the marshmallows without tearing. You can redip between marshmallows if needed.
• Slide on your first marshmallow, then add a tiny dab of melted candy to its top before adding the next one.
• Add the second marshmallow, again adding candy melt to the top so all three marshmallows stay snug, secure, and perfectly stacked.
• Add the last marshmallow

Pro Tip – Wiggle the skewer gently while pushing through the marshmallows to keep them from cracking. And glitter always goes on before the face, so nothing smears.

Step 2: Make the Scarf

• Cut a strip of the Fruit Roll-Up long enough to be able to wrap it around the snowman’s neck and cross over in front.
• Snip tiny fringe lines into the ends for a cute scarf detail.
• Use tiny dabs of candy melt as glue to attach it to the marshmallow snowman.

Step 3: Build the Hat

• Attach a Rolo to a chocolate coin with a small dab of melted chocolate.
• Place it to the side to set while you move on ot the next steps. It’s best to prop them up as the hat sets. A cake pop stand makes this a lot easier, but you can also use a piece of thick styrofoam or even a cup filled with rice works just as well.

Step 4: Add Buttons

• Using dabs of candy melt as glue, add 3 mini M&Ms to create colorful snowman buttons.

Step 5: Add the Face

• Use a black food marker to dot on eyes and a smile.
• Then add your orange sprinkle carrot nose right in the center.

Step 6: Attach the Hat and Scarf

• Using tiny dabs of melted chooclate, attach the scarf. Start at the back side of the snowman and wrap the scarf around its body, making sure to cross it over itself in the front.
• Next, againusing melted chocolate, careful place the hat on the snowman’s head. Hold it in place until it can stick on its own.
• Then allow the candy to solidify for at least 5 minutyes before the next step.

Step 7: Add Shimmer

• Lastly, use a food-safe paintbrush, paint a little edible shimmer dust/glitter over the marshmallows to give your snowman a frosty shimmer.

And that’s it, your sparkly little snowmen are ready to parade across the dessert table!

Recipe Tips

• Use fresh marshmallows for the fluffiest, smoothest look.
• Press the hat on for a few seconds so it stays perfectly centered.
• Make a whole little snowman family by using different scarf colors.
