Well, a treacle tart is a pie traditionally made using shortcrust pastry, which a thick filling made of treacle and breadcrumbs. I actually had treacle tart a lot as a child and I always loved it.

Keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. If it's warm, refrigerate to prevent melting, but let them come to room temp before enjoying for the best crunch.
Absolutely! Homemade pretzel rods can add a personal touch and might be a bit fresher. Just ensure they're sturdy enough to handle the chocolate dipping and decorating
Use a quality melting chocolate and follow package instructions. Adding a teaspoon of vegetable oil per cup of chocolate can help achieve a silky finish.
Opt for vegan pretzel rods and use dairy-free chocolate melts. Ensure all decorations, like the edible stars, are vegan-friendly as well.
