Step 2: Dab a small amount of icing on the back of 2 candy eyes and place on the bar right underneath the ears.

Step 4: Apply icing to the back of 2 mini marshmallows and place them below the nose, side by side.
Step 5: Dab a small amount of icing on the back of a blue M&M and place it on the bottom of the bar. This will be the middle of the bow tie.
Step 6: Apply icing to the back of 2 blue triangles and place one on each side of the blue M&M for the bow tie.
Step 7: Repeat these steps for each bar. If you want the bow tie to be green, use a green M&M and 2 green triangles. If
