Copycat Disneyland Tigger Tails
These decorated marshmallows are not only delicious and fun but are extremely easy to make.
Ingredients
- 2 (13.4 ounces) cans Netsle Dulce de Leche
- 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
- 40 large marshmallows
- 10 (20-inch) lollipop sticks (from Michael's)
- 1 (12 ounce) bag orange candy melts (Wilton)
optional: 1 tablespoon shortening
- orange sanding sugar
- 1 cup dark chocolate candy melts
Instructions
- Stack four marshmallows together on a lollipop stick.
- Place caramel and heavy whipping cream into a microwave safe bowl, heat to melt, in 30 second intervals. NOTE: DO NOT OVER HEAT THE CARAMEL, you don't want to melt the marshmallows.
- Stir until the caramel is thin enough to dip the marshmallows. NOTE: If needed you can more cream only 1 tablespoon at a time.
- Dip marshmallows into warm caramel making sure to completely cover.
- Set on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Place in refrigerator until caramel hardens (about 10 minutes).
- While the caramel is hardening prepare candy.
- Pour candy into a medium microwaved safe bowl; heat for 1 minute, stir until candy is creamy and melted. If the candy is not completely melted microwave a little more in 15 second intervals.
- Once caramel is hardened dip into the melted candy and immediately sprinkle with orange sanding sugar.
- Refrigerate 15 minutes or until candy has hardened.
- Pour dark chocolate candy into a small microwave safe bowl; heat in 30 second intervals until chocolate is melted and creamy.
- For the next step you can use a spoon to drizzle over the Tigger Tails but I prefer to use a squeeze bottle. The key is to make one side thicker and on the next stroke make the opposite side thicker. HAVE FUN!
Notes
You won't use all the caramel but having two cans will make the dipping process easier.

you say to use 20 inch sticks. I have tried to find them and I can not find any that long. longest I can find are Wilton nearly 13″.
I’m sorry Sherry that was a typo. The correct size is 11½ to 12 -inch lollipop sticks.
How much orange sanding sugar was needed for these? I’m having a hard d one figuring out how much will cover them!
Hi Melissa, I’m sorry I don’t the exact amount. I buy my sprinkles in bulk 12 ounces at a time. The bakery store I purchase my sanding sugar from doesn’t have it available on their website. Here is another place, I love their sprinkles. I have ordered from them several times. Click here for the sugar—->>>> Orange Sanding Sugar Bulk
How long are these good for after you make them?? Without getting hard and stale. Still be fresh, soft and good.?
Hi Maryana, If you cover the marshmallows completely in the melted candy they should stay fresh for a least a week.
How do you store them? Airtight container or fridge?
Hi Margie, If the Tigger Tails are completely coated with the melted candy they are fine being stored in a cool location. They shouldn’t be covered and definitely not refrigerated. ♥
Can you freeze these?
Hi Dawn, No you can’t freeze them.
Hi I made these several years ago, and they were a big hit. I want to make them again, but I thought in your recipe you ordered your Carmels from a specialty store, which is what I did. I didn’t order enough and had to you buy regular Carmel’s – big difference. But as I read your recipe I don’t see the remark about using a special Carmel.
Hi Michele, I updated the post this week and found out the company that made the caramel is no longer in business. So sad….it was a really good product. Try the Dulce de Leche. I think you’ll equally like the caramel.
