Melt Guittard milk chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring every 30 seconds and set aside.
To color this pumpkin's face, melt Guittard white chocolate in 30 second intervals, stirring in between. Set 2 bowls with small amounts of the white chocolate aside. Add yellow candy coloring to one of the bowls. Just 3 drops or so to get a light yellow color. To the other bowl add 3 drops of yellow and one drop of red candy coloring. Place the yellow chocolate into one candy painting bottle, and the orange into another candy painting bottle.
Carefully paint in the pumpkin mold's eyes, nose and mouth with the yellow chocolate. Carefully paint in the stem of the Jack O' Lantern with the orange chocolate. Let the yellow and orange chocolate cool in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
Place the pretzel rod into the mold, over the colored face. Fill in the rest of the mold cavity, while also covering the yellow and orange chocolate and the pretzel, with the milk chocolate.
Tap the mold on the counter to make sure there are no bubbles on the front of the mold, and to help the chocolate reach the edge of the mold. Place in the freezer for 15 minutes.
The kids loved these unique treats instead of your usual boring cupcake!
