Wash and thoroughly dry the grapes. Make sure they are free of excess water so the toppings will stick properly.
Break the mini pretzel sticks in half to create 24 small sticks. These will serve as the 'skewers.'
Push the broken pretzel sticks about halfway into each grape as a handle, resembling a stick for a corndog.
Lay a sheet of wax paper on a clean surface or a baking tray to prevent sticking.
In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the caramel sauce in 10-second intervals until it’s warm and slightly runny. Stir in between intervals to ensure even consistency.
Drizzle the caramel sauce lightly over each grape to create a decorative coating. Be careful not to use too much or it will pool around the bottom.
Microwave the white chocolate chips in a separate bowl in 10-second intervals, stirring each time, until smooth and melted.
Using a small spoon or piping bag, add a thin drizzle of melted white chocolate over the grapes for added sweetness and visual contrast.
If desired, sprinkle a small amount of colorful sprinkles on top of the grapes while the chocolate is still wet to add a festive touch.
Allow the grapes to set on the wax paper for about 5 minutes, or until the caramel and chocolate harden slightly.
Transfer the 'Grape Dogs' to a serving platter and enjoy immediately, or store them in the refrigerator for up to 6 hours before serving.
