My husband, C, LOVES sour candy. I mean it…he really, really loves anything sour. Jolly Ranchers, Sourpatch, Swedish Fish, Lemonheads-the more sour the candy is, the more he likes it! The other day, he mentioned that he would like me to try to make some homemade sour candy and I plan on trying that sometime soon, but I remembered this little recipe I found on Pinterest and showed it to him to see if he wanted me to try it. He said go for it so I did. This is so quick and easy that it is hardly even a recipe, but C really like them so I will probably being making them again in the near future. Thanks, Sweet Treats & More, for this little sweet and sour treat.
1 bag of green grapes
1 small box of lime gelatin
Wash the grapes and leave them slightly damp. Put the grapes into a gallon zip top bag and pour the gelatin powder into the bag as well. Close the bag and shake, shake, shake. Chill for a few hours and enjoy!
These look like something my husband would love!! It is a simple and good recipe for the summer 🙂 Thanks! I found you through Spatulas on Parade.

could you use a different flavor of jello?
I don’t see why not. I just recreated the original recipe but my husband wants me to try orange gelatin with orange slices sometimes.
I made these about an hour ago. My son tried one, and said they werent sour… I’m wondering if they need to be colder? or maybe the grapes are just sweet? oh well, they’re going to a picnic later anyhow. I’m sure they will be eaten!
I think most of the sourness does come from the grapes themselves while the gelatin just gives them an extra flavor kick. I am sorry yours weren’t sour enough.
not your fault, LOL.. However, they were a huge hit! the kids, and the adults loved them! some will be making them for the 4th!… someone also suggested, cherries, bing/black,. with cherry jellow.. hmm.. strawberries… makes me want to run to the store and try all different types now! thanks!!! 😀
These look good!
