Strange adventures in Christmas icing

I'm not sure about mixing pretzels with the sweet sweet goodness of cupcakes...  Has anyone tried it, or a similar arrangement?

Chocolate-dipped pretzels are a popular snack in America, at least judging by the amount of space they get on the supermarket shelf. It's part of their whole sugar-makes-everything-better approach to cookery.

Sweet and salty is often mixed in US cuisine, not least when it comes to fries with tomato sauce and coke :)

Those reindeer look like they're sinking away in the snow. A bit distressing! :)

When I was in the states I loved chocolate pretzels, and was also shown the epic technique of putting peanut m&ms into my popcorn at the movie. I am STILL hopelessly addicted to this! :)

Chocolate-covered cashew nuts are surprisingly delicious :D
