Kracie Popin' Cookin' DIY candy kit gummy animals

SOOOOO MUCH FUN! This was a great buy for both me and my 4yr old. Directions aren't in English so here you go:Open package. Separate the candy molds. Get a cup of water. Open the color packets one by one and empty the entire packet in one of the square bins. Use your dropper and squeeze water to fill up these color bins. Use a toothpick to carefully mix. The smaller bin above your colored bins is your neutral and should be water only. Next use your dropper to make different colors in the small circular bins. Your neutral is to clean out the dropper before it goes into a new color to not mix colors unintentionally. Empty the green bag into the largest bin. Put a mold in the pectin/sugar blend (the largest bin) and use the dropper to add colors inside the mold. Give it about 2 minutes maybe a little more but use your fork to move the mold and see if it sticks to the extra pectic/sugar around. If it isn't sticking then pick up the mold and gently use your fork to push out the candy. Use the fork again to even out the pectin/sugar to make another. It can be eaten right away and will be slightly gooey or give it a little while to let it dry up more like a store bought candy. These are really good. So simple and fun. We made about 15 candies with the set and were all eaten immediately. You can keep the molds for playdoh or something later on. Great buy, will definitely get again. Also, I received it before the due date.

The product arrived in good condition in a colorful cellophane package. It contains a plastic tray with different sections for mixing the pouches of candy powder. The red pouch tastes like bubble gum, the yellow pouch tastes like lemon, and the blue pouch tastes like berries. You mix each packet with water, which you squeeze from a little plastic dropper that is included. Also included is a small plastic fork, and four different little molded shapes of animals or objects. The large green pouch contains the powder base, which you spread evenly in the largest section of the tray. Then you place each molded shape into the powder, and use the dropper to add the colored candy water. The candy sets in seconds. One side is shiny, the other side has white candied powder. Then you just gently push the candy out of the mold using the little plastic fork. You can eat them immediately or let them set for a few minutes. I was able to make 8 gummy candies. I successfully pushed each one out of the mold without breaking the candy. The taste is very authentic and intense. It is very tasty. I am buying this product again because it is delicious, interesting, different, simple, and entertaining.

I have seen several YouTube videos of these poppin' cookin' kits. They looked fun and the gummies others created looked so cute so I decided to try one for myself. Being imported from Japan I knew it would take a little while to arrive but it still arrived a few days earlier than expected. I'd say it was worth the wait. I received my kit today and I couldn't wait to get started. Mine included the teddy bear, apple, choo choo train and candy molds. After seeing videos on YouTube I already knew how to use it. The result was delicious and colorful little gummies, sweet but not too sweet. I especially loved the grape flavor. Because of the inexpensive price and free shipping I will definitely order more of these.

My kids absolutely loved making their own gummy candy! It was super fun to do, however the instructions are not in English so made it a little hard to understand exactly what to do so we looked online and found some instructions in English. I gave it only a 4 star rating since it did not come with instructions in English. I would def purchase again. The gummy candies are very tasty.***For those wondering how you do it. First you pour the big pouch of powder into the big area. Then you pour the smaller pouches into each small areas on the sides and water to it with the dropper included. Mix each side colors carefully. Once each color is mixed well, you can use the dropper to pick up which color you want, and then add it to the small sections under the big section. You can mix colors this way and get the color you want. Once you do this, put which stencil you want inside the big section and press down firmly so that white powder covers the entire inside of the stencil. Then put which color you want inside the dropper and then carefully drop the color into the powdered stencil area.***

Okay the fun thing about these is trying to make them using the directions provided. My girls and I watched some you tubers and had to try! It was so much fun!! My girls are teenagers so anytime spent with me is amazing. We laughed our butts off. The fact that none of us knew what we were doing was refreshing. Usually Im the only dumb one in the room. It was a great bonding experience for me and my girls. I bought several and had fun with everyone of them. They don't always taste good but that was another fun thing about them. Asking who would eat this stuff and wondering if its safe. It is don't worry! At least I think it is I can't read what it says. You can get something like this at Target, I wouldn't. Not knowing what we were doing was really the highlight of that day. The more complicated the better. We tried to make them look as close to the package as possible and everything had to be used. Yes we had rules, how else can you stop them from just throwing it all in the tray and walking away. I can not recommend this item enough!

This was so much fun! It's easy to make and the cute shapes and mixing of colors is great and easy for young children. Some of the other popin cookin sets can be pretty frustrating for kids, and the taste payoff is usually not so great. This kit however is easy enough to keep kids happy, while also allowing them to be creative with it! The taste isn't "great" but it's also not awful and it's one of the better tasting kits in my opinion.
