How to make Sour Patch Grapes
I have tried this with both sugar free and regular gelatin powder and it tastes the same either way. I have used different flavors of Jello, but I like lime the best as it adds the perfect tart taste to the grapes. If you use sugar free Jello and follow the Weight Watchers plan, these yummy sour patch grapes are 0 points. Score!
Now the easy steps for this treat. First wash grapesthoroughly. You will want to be sure they are plenty wet for the next step so that the gelatin mix is able to stick to them. Pour a small amount of the Jello into a separate large bowl and add a few grapes that have just been washed. Roll them around a bit or dip them and when they are covered, place them in a zip top bag. I prefer to use grapes that have already been in the fridge so that they take less time to freeze.
Pop them in the freezer for an hour and they are ready to eat. I store these grapes in the freezer where I always have some on hand for an easy treat.
The kids loved these glitter grapes! Please make sure you cut the grapes in half for little ones as grapes can be a choking hazard.
