Delicious Frozen Candy Grapes With Jello (Print version)

Crisp seedless grapes coated in fruity Jello powder and frozen until cold, crunchy, and candy-like.

# Ingredients:

For the grapes

01 - 1 lb (450 g) firm seedless green or red grapes

02 - 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice, lemon juice, or cold water

For the coating

03 - 6 tablespoons powdered Jello gelatin dessert mix, assorted flavors

04 - Optional: 1/4 teaspoon citric acid for a sour candy finish

# Instructions:

01 - Remove the grapes from the stems and rinse them well. Discard any soft or split grapes.

02 - Shake off the excess water and blot lightly with a clean towel. The grapes should be damp enough to hold powder but not dripping.

03 - Place each Jello flavor in a separate shallow bowl. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

04 - Toss about 1 cup of grapes with a small splash of lime juice, lemon juice, or water. Roll them in the Jello powder until coated on all sides.

05 - Arrange the coated grapes on the baking sheet without crowding. Freeze for 1-2 hours, until firm.

06 - Transfer the frozen grapes to an airtight freezer container or freezer bag. Serve straight from the freezer for the best crunchy texture.

# Good to know:

01 - Freeze time is 1-2 hours in addition to prep time.

02 - Serve frozen and return leftovers to the freezer quickly.

03 - Cut grapes in half before freezing if serving to very young children.
