Can I use regular chocolate?

Of course!! You can use regular chocolate almond bark if you like, the color won’t be as pretty as if you used white almond bark.   

Can I substitute the peanuts?

Sure you can!  You can use any nuts you like or you can even omit them if you have allergies and substitute pretzels. 

Can I use regular marshmallows instead of the fruit ones?

You can but just make sure you use mini marshmallows not the larger ones.

Can I make this ahead of time?

You can make this ahead of time.  These are good for a while, just make sure to keep them in an airtight container.
