Line a rimmed half baking sheet (18x13) with wax paper. Be sure to leave some hanging over the ends to help remove the candy bark. Set aside.
Following package directions, melt black candy melts. Spread across the bottom of the lined baking sheet.
Immediately melt the yellow candy melts according to package directions. (If you can, melt the black candy melts and yellow, separately, but at the same time.). You will need to work quickly before the black base chocolate sets.
Place 2 small teaspoons of melted yellow candy on top of the melted black chocolate, at opposite ends from each other.
Use a a fork to swirl the yellow on top of the black. You want a swirled effect and not mix in the yellow to the black completely. If needed, add more melted yellow until you get the desired effect.
Sprinkle the melted chocolate with yellow sprinkles, black sprinkles, and yellow star sprinkles on top.
Set aside until cooled completely and hard, about 2 hours at room temperature or around 20 minutes in the refrigerator.*
To remove, use the ends of the wax paper to remove the set bark. Place on a cutting board and break bark pieces apart. The number of pieces you get will depend on how big or small you break the pieces of bark. Enjoy!
Store leftover candy in an airtight container on the counter for up to a month.
Notes
*I like to let bark candy harden at room temperature because sometimes if you put it in the refrigerator to harden it collects condensation, which can affect the candy sprinkles.
