- If YUM YUM bars are too messy to cut, you can scoop them out of the pan with a cookie scoop. This will give you bite-sized treats that are easy to eat.
- YUM YUM bars can be dressed up for special occasions. You can drizzle them with melted chocolate, sprinkle them with nuts or chopped candy, or even add a dollop of whipped cream.
