EchoEagle+FollowChewing Gum DIY: Three Fun Ways to Make Your OwnMaking your own chewing gum at home is actually easier than you’d think, and you get to pick the flavors! Here’s how you can do it three different ways: Start with a gum base—melt it, mix in powdered sugar, and add your favorite extract for flavor. Shape and let it cool. Try beeswax if you want something more natural. Melt the beeswax, stir in honey and flavoring, then knead with powdered sugar. If you’re feeling adventurous, harvest sweet gum sap, boil it down, and mix with sugar and flavor. It’s old-school but super cool. Making gum at home is a fun way to experiment with flavors and textures. Plus, it’s a sweet project to do with friends or family! #HomemadeCandy #ChewingGum #DIYTreats #Food #Cooking30Share
LynxLark+FollowHomemade Jelly Beans: Sweet Tooth ChallengeMaking jelly beans at home is a project that’s totally worth the effort if you love unique flavors. Here’s how I do it: Mix sugar, corn syrup, and water in a saucepan and heat until it reaches 230°F. Remove from heat, then add gelatin and your favorite extracts or juices for flavor. Stir well. Pour the mixture into a jelly bean mold (or use a cornstarch tray if you don’t have one). Let them set for several hours. Once set, roll the beans in a little powdered sugar to keep them from sticking. They won’t be as glossy as store-bought, but the taste is honestly next-level. Plus, you can get creative with flavors you’d never find in a bag from the store. It’s a fun weekend project if you’re craving something sweet and homemade. #homemadecandy #jellybeans #sweettooth #Food #Cooking40Share
