Julia,

I haven't tried this but I found it online. Sounds cute. Good luck!

Take a bag of mini-marshmallows.  Glue them in a line on a full
graham cracker or old fashioned taffy rectangle, using two marshmallows for
the center one where the shamash goes.  Use cake frosting for glue.  Insert
mini-pretzels for candles.  If the kids have really good fine motor skills,
paint a little dab of brighter frosting color on the top of each for a
flame.
