Fall candy bark is such a fun treat, especially once the weather gets chilly.  Something about sweet candies and rich chocolate mixed that works well.

I’ll be the first to admit that one of my favorite activities in the fall is to sneak small pieces of the candy to have with my coffee on chilly afternoons.

We have created our own version of the classic candy bark with this fall pumpkin patch candy bark.  Reminiscent of our family’s tradition to visit the pumpkin patch, this delicious fall candy bark mixes together candy corn pumpkins, fall themed sprinkles and some extra green chocolate for the vines.

Basically, you can create your own edible pumpkin patch.

1. Melt the chocolate candy melts over a double boiler or in small batches in the microwave.  If you would like to make an entire sheet of chocolate bark, then you will need 16 ounces of candy melts (2 bags).  I used 12 ounces (1 bag) and made 3/4 of the tray.

Place a piece of wax paper on top of your cookie sheet.  Spread the melted chocolate out as evenly as possible.

2.  Place pumpkins on top of the chocolate.

3.  Melt 6 ounces of green chocolate candy melts.  Using a small squeeze bottle (affiliate) or frosting bag, make green vines between the pumpkins to connect them.

4.  Add some fall colored sprinkles for grass and hay.  I used candy corn sprinkles.  You could also use leaf sprinkles to show leaves (affiliate).  Let your pumpkin patch candy bark set for 2 to 3 hours.

5.  Once the fall chocolate bark has set, cut or carefully break into pieces.  Serve at a party or package as a treat for family and friends.
