Jelly Bean Bark, a great way to incorporate left over Easter Jelly Beans, is a super easy kid friendly recipe that takes your jelly beans and wraps them up in white melty chocolate.
I can’t say that I love Jelly Beans. I can’t even say that I like Jelly Beans. But there is something about Jelly Belly’s that make me grab a handful and then grab another handful and then grab another handful…… I am sure you have been there.
So today, instead of just eating the 3000 Jelly Beans Chris got Charlotte and I for Valentines Day, we made Jelly Belly Bark (inspired by a recipe we saw in a Taste of Home cookbook).
Look.
Almost too pretty to eat. Almost.
And so incredibly easy that you can nearly let your child loose on creating it themselves!
Jelly Bean Bark
- white bark
/candy coating, or white chocolate,
- 2 cups Jelly Beans
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
How to make Jelly Bean Bark
Just line your pan with foil and brush the foil with butter.
Melt your candy chocolate coating (I personally use almond bark) and spread into pan.
Sprinkle with Jelly Beans and let your bark set before breaking up into pieces.
Voila. Surgery, Yummy, Jelly Bean Bark Goodness!
And while it would definitely be a perfect snack for Easter (um, hello, Jelly Beans are like a staple for Easter) it’s also perfect for anytime. Like…well…now.

Frankenstein is all split up in this super fun Halloween bark that is perfect for your next spooky bash!
No mistaking the swirls in this beautiful colored bark that all kids will love making and eating. Melt, freeze, done! And just look at those shiny stars!
Can’t complete your bark bar without pretty mermaid chocolate. Of course traditional bark is fine, but you can also mix it up and make some mermaid tails too!
Not all bark begins and ends with chocolate (although who am I to judge). Cover it in berries and call it good for you! Only five minutes for this berry covered bar with a crunch.
What a wonderful way to take the taste of Jelly Bellys to another level. I think you are on to something there! I must try it.
Looks super yummy!
you have made me want to go get some jelly beans now.
OH, I love Jelly Belly’s… I can only imagine how delicious they would be in almond bark.
And you are soooo right that it would be perfect for Easter… this is going in my collection for then. =)
Yum! I love making everything into bark, but I’ve never thought of doing it with jelly bellys before! What a great idea!
Oh, I love Jelly Bellys! So much better than your average jelly bean. Love this idea, wouldn’t have thought to use them in bark.
Not a huge jelly bean fan, but with a certain flavor of jelly belly’s, I think this would be fantastic! Very unique!
Great idea for Easter thanks!
