Glee Gum Make Your Own Candy Kit Review and Giveaway

CONGRATULATIONS! WINNER #8 Hifam

If you have been following my blog for awhile you may remember when I posted a review for of Glee Gum's Make Your Own Chocolate Kit. Recently I was given the opportunity to review another one of their Make Your Own Candy Kits, the Make Your Own Gummies Kit.

This kit contains everything you need to make your own gummy fish, gummy bear, gummy worm or whatever other shape you can mold. I knew right away my little girl Penelope would have a blast making her own gummies. Penelope is only three years old so this ended up being a fun family project, we even got dad to join along! Honestly, I think he had the most fun of all with this kit.

The kit includes step by step instructions on how to create your edible treats and also has a fun story and information and history on the ingredients used. With this particular gummy kit you are actually making gummies out of seaweed. Really! Chris and I were a little skeptical about this but after reading about the process of turning seaweed into gelatin and of course tasting our creation that skepticism quickly vanished. This kit made delicious gummy candies and in just minutes! The most fun part about making our candy was selecting molds to shape our gummies. The kit includes a molding starch that you can use to create indentations of pretty much anything you have in your home. You fill these  with your gummy solution where it will harden and then presto you have a gummy shaped like you want. In our case we made gummy bear faces, gummy stars, and gummy hearts. These did not last long!

Glee Gum Make Your Own Candy Kits are the perfect cold weather activity for you to do with you kiddos. They also make great gifts for older kids. You can purchase them online or check the store locator for a store near you that carries them.
