Well the boys are back to school and Bella and I are finding plenty to do! Yesterday — homemade gummi bears! All we needed was 1 -3 oz box of flavored gelatin and 2 – 1/4 oz packages of unflavored gelatin, water and candy molds. (we used two candy molds) Place 1/3 cup water in a small sauce pan. Sprinkle the Jello and unflavored gelatin over the water.

And you wouldn’t believe how easy it is to make them—if you can make jello, you can make homemade gumdrops ! A quick search of the Interwebs yielded many different recipes. Some with flavored gelatin and others with, oddly enough, applesauce. Variations of this recipe abound, and I love it both for its simplicity as well as its adaptability to any flavor or any color in the rainbow! So, let’s get to it.

I fell in love with making homemade caramels last fall when I found and re-created the Ale and Pretzel Soft Caramels . Those babies are incredibly addicting! I’m not sure how I stumbled upon Shawna’s recipe for these sea salt caramels recently, but I’m so glad that I found them.Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles I’ve never liked chocolate chip cookies.
