Equipment

  • Small bowls
  • Baking sheet
  • Paper towels
  • Toothpicks

Ingredients
  

  • 2 Cups Green Grapes
  • 3 Tbsp Lime Juice
  • 1 Pack Purple Jello Powder
  • 1 Pack Blue Jello Powder
  • 2 Tbsp White Sugar

Instructions
 

  • Wash your green grapes in cold water carefully. Remove them from the long stems one by one. Place them in a large bowl. Ensure all dirt is gone.
  • Place grapes on a dry paper towel now. Pat them until they are very dry. Moisture will ruin the sugar coating. Take your time with this.
  • Put different Jello powders in separate bowls. Add a little white sugar to each one. Mix them with a small spoon. Set them in a row.
  • Put the dry grapes in a clean bowl. Pour the lime juice over them. Toss them gently to coat every surface. Every grape should be wet.
  • Pick up a grape with a toothpick. Roll it in the purple powder. Then roll it in blue powder. This creates the galaxy look.
  • Place coated grapes on the baking sheet. Do not let them touch each other. Let them sit for ten minutes. The shell will harden up.

Notes

  • Use very firm grapes for the best crunch.
  • Dry the grapes completely before adding any juice.
  • Use bright Jello colors for a real galaxy.
  • Do not crowd the tray while they dry.
  • Work in small batches to stay organized.
  • Keep your hands dry during the coating step.
