Place 1 or 2 wire cooling wracks over a cookie sheet or cutting board.

Place 3 oz (approximately ½ cup) of melting wafers in a microwave safe bowl - glass of ceramic works best. Microwave on full power for 45 seconds, stir and continue microwaving in 15 second intervals until the chocolate has become smooth and liquid.

Spoon the melted chocolate over ⅓ of each pretzel - work from side-to-side. If the chocolate turns into more of a spread than a liquid, return it to the microwave for another 10 seconds or until it is liquid again. When all the pretzels are coated make sure they chocolate has hardened to the touch before proceeding. It should only take a few minutes in a cool room. You may pop them in the freezer if needed.

Repeat the melting process with 2.5 oz of chocolate (approximately ⅓ cup). When melted add a few drops of orange gel food dye (remember: you can add more but you can not take color away), stir and add additional drops until the chocolate reaches the desired color strength.

Coat the next ⅓ of the pretzels overlapping the first coat just slightly. Again allow the chocolate to harden to the touch before proceeding.

In a clean bowl melt the remaining chocolate and color with yellow food dye as before. Coat the remaining ⅓ of each pretzel. Allow the chocolate to harden before serving or storing in a cool dry place.
