Directions:

1. Pour the candy melts into a bowl and microwave for 1 minute at 50 percent power. Stir and microwave in 30-second intervals until melted and smooth. Add a teaspoon of melted coconut oil to the melted candy to achieve an extra drizzly effect.
2. Lay a piece of parchment paper on a flat work surface. Add a spoonful of melted candy to the middle of the parchment paper and press one end of a Sour Punch Halloween Twist into the candy. Repeat, arranging a total of 6 Sour Punch Halloween Twists in a spoke-like pattern.
3. Dip your spoon in the melted candy and drizzle it around the Sour Punch Halloween Twists in a circular pattern to create a "spiderweb" look. Repeat with the remaining candy; 6 mini sour spiderwebs total.
4. Sprinkle about a tablespoon of candy bugs or sprinkles onto the web.
5. Transfer the mini sour spiderwebs to the refrigerator until completely dry and set, about 20 minutes.
