How to Make Your Own Bubblegum
Materials Needed
Microwave-safe Bowl
popsicle stick
Parchment Paper or Waxed Paper
Rolling Pin
1/3 cup of Chicle (gum pellets)
1 tbsp of powdered flavor (Kool-Aid or other type of flavoring)
2 tablespoons of corn syrup
1/2 cup of powdered sugar
Directions – First, wash your hands.
1. Put ½ cup of powdered sugar on the waxed paper
and make a hole in the middle.
2. Add chicle pellets and corn syrup to a microwavable bowl.
3. Microwave for 10-20 seconds on high, then stir, until
fully melted. *This step is for a grownup, as the mixture
gets very hot.
4. Carefully pour the mixture into the powdered sugar
and combine using the popsicle stick.
8. Add the powdered flavoring and continue mixing. When the
mixture is hard to stir, knead it with your hands.
7. Flatten the gum with your hands or a rolling pin and
cut the gum into any shape.
8. Let the gum pieces dry for an hour and then dust
the pieces with powdered sugar and wrap them in
waxed paper.
