Pretzel bars
I have three different pretzel sheet cakes to choose from as vegan food gifts: chocolate and rose petal, white chocolate raspberry and duo pretzel bars. Just keep in mind that the mini pretzels go stale over night, so you’d need to decorate them right before giving them away. The cake base can be made in advance though, you can even freeze it.
