I used to be such a picky eater as a child. I wouldn't even eat strawberry ice cream because its pink hue made it seem too strange!
Obviously, I've found the error of my ways since and regularly enjoy all the colors of the rainbow in my diet.
That's especially true when we're talking about sweets. Something about a bright, vibrant shade just make the sugary treat seem even more delectable!
Sure, it might not always be a natural color for us to regularly consume, but totally fine to indulge in now and again. What's even better, you can make all sorts of delightful goodies right in your own kitchen.
Whether you've got a hankering for some classic gummy bears or looking for something a little more adventurous, all you need is a handy packet of gelatin or Jell-O mix, and you're on your way to a houseful of charming snacks.
I have to say, the creative option below has to be the most adorable example I've ever seen!
Using the iconic rubber ducky many of us befriended at bath time as kids, he creates a mold out of gelatin using food coloring to get the golden yellow shade. First, he surrounds the toy with two layers of the gelatin mixture, then allows that to cool in the fridge for an hour. After it's solidified, he then carefully removes it from the mold and adds a small hole for him to pour in a new batch of gelatin for the final product.
Take a look to see how it turns out! And be sure to SHARE the precious project with your friends.
