Step 1
Butter a large baking sheet; set aside.
Step 2
Spread nuts in an even layer on a plate; set aside.
Step 3
In a heavy medium saucepan, heat and stir caramels and whipping cream over medium-low heat just until caramels are melted. Reduce heat to low.

Hold each pretzel rod by one end over the pan and spoon hot caramel mixture evenly over three-fourths of the pretzel; shake off excess.
Step 5
Roll coated part of pretzel in nuts, turning to coat all sides.
Step 6
Place pretzels on prepared baking sheet and let stand about 30 minutes or until caramel is set.
Step 7
In a small heavy saucepan, melt vanilla-flavor candy coating and 1/2 teaspoon of the shortening.
Step 8
In another small heavy saucepan, melt the chocolate-flavor candy coating and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon shortening.
Step 9
Carefully spoon each candy coating mixture into a heavy resealable plastic bag. Snip off a corner of each bag.
Step 10
Transfer pretzel rods to a sheet of waxed paper. Drizzle some of each mixture over the caramel and nuts on each pretzel, turning pretzel to coat all sides.
