TIPS FOR THE BEST FRUITY PEBBLES BARS Follow these tips to make the best rainbow rice krispie treats. ✔️ Use only fresh ingredients. Don’t use stale cereal or marshmallows as they will make your treat bars taste stale as well. ✔️ Use mini marshmallows. They melt quicker in the pot and you are able to add some whole marshmallows to the bars. ✔️ Grease your spatula. Grease your spatula or hands when spreading the cereal into the pan. Alternatively, use a little waxed paper to prevent it from sticking to your hands. ✔️ Don’t skip the cooling time. Fruity pebbles bars only cut well if they are properly chilled. Otherwise they are too sticky and gooey to cut. HOW TO STORE Refrigerate: Leftover fruity pebbles bars can be stored in the baking dish covered with cling wrap, in an airtight container or ziploc bag in the refrigerator or on the counter at room temperature for a up to 3 days. Freeze: Freeze these cereal treat bars in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Defrost on the counter.
