When you’re working with melted chocolate, it’s good to have things ready to go. Once you get started, you don't want your chocolate to harden before you have a chance to make your creation.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper and get out the rest of your supplies like mermaid themed sprinkles, chocolate candy melts in three different colors, microwave-safe bowls, and plastic bags or piping bags.

Next, melt only the white chocolate candy melts. You can use a double boiler or a microwave-safe bowl according to the instructions on your candy melts.

I melted mine in the microwave by changing the settings to 50% power and stirring every 20 seconds to see if it was done.

If you overheat your candy melts they may burn and turn hard. If this happens, throw them out and start with a fresh bowl then use a shorter amount of time and lower setting on your microwave.

Spread your white chocolate candy melts onto your parchment paper or wax paper. Use a spatula to make a fairly uniform shape like a square or rectangle.

While your white chocolate is still setting, add mermaid themed sprinkles on top. You can find mermaid themed sprinkles at your local craft store in the baking aisle. You can also find some like these sprinkles on Amazon.

Melt your pink and teal candy melts in separate bowls. Once they are liquid, put them in a piping bag or small plastic bag and cut off the very tip of one corner of the bag.

Make sure you only cut a small amount so you can easily control how much chocolate is coming out.

Drizzle the melted pink and teal chocolate over your mermaid bark to give it a more layered look.

You can put your mermaid bark in the fridge or leave it on the counter at room temperature to fully cool. I don’t recommend putting your tray in the freezer because when you take it out, the frozen chocolate might sweat and become cloudy looking.

I used a knife to break up my finished mermaid bark. You can also use your hands to snap it into pieces.
