Galaxy Bark is Easy and Fun to Make

There’s something therapeutic about making galaxy bark.

First of all, swirling all the colors together to create your own personal galaxy is soothing.

Then, once it’s cool and ready to break, cracking the candy is most definitely satisfying.

Bark candy is always a hit at parties.

Using candy melts to create limitless designs and colors, there’s a good chance you can always create bark to match your party theme.

Of course, galaxy bark is not limited to birthday party bashes.

Make it for your next game night, space movie marathon, girls’ night in, or whenever you feel the urge to make candy.
