This unusual kit makes gummy jellyfish, and the process is quite unique compared to the others we’ve been making.

Three bags of powder and a tray, much like you’ve seen in the other kits. As usual we begin by mixing one of the powders with water.

This creates the jellyfish, which (based on shape) are of several species. The white powder became the yellow gummy when the water was added.

Next a second bag of powder was mixed with water to make this transparent slime. The packaging suggested it would be clear after enough mixing, but try as I did I couldn’t mix out all of the air bubbles. It had the consistency of shampoo or thick oil.

This slime was added to the small spoon…

And then a jelly was carefully added. It’s a little difficult to see in the photo, but the jellyfish is now suspended in a small cupfull of liquid slime.

Then the magic happened. The last bag of powder had been dissolved into water to create a light blue transparent liquid which was being stored in the tray. I believe this was supposed to be an ‘aquarium’ for the jellyfish, but whatever the suspension was it turned the liquid slime into a gelatinous semisolid once it was carefully lowered in!

There’s the four jellyfish sealed in their slime bubbles suspended in the aquarium. Gummy inside slime inside liquid: what a complex and bizarre candy kit!

These were most unusual candies. It turned out that only the outer skin of the slime bubble was strengthened and the inside remained liquid! Eating them was truly unpleasant – like eating a grape with liquified interior. The taste (called ‘Pineapple acid’ on the package) wasn’t great either .

But it was interesting and fun to make – perhaps the most fun of all of them so far – and for that alone gets two thumbs up!
