\u00a0Once I got over the excitement of finding my toy in my old bedroom at my parents, I was caught up playing it for a while. \u00a0It still worked. \u00a0All it needed was some fresh batteries. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Once I was done my &#8220;research&#8221; 20 minutes later, I got down to work figuring out how to make these gummies. \u00a0I&#8217;ve made homemade gummy worms and gummy bears before, and I essentially used the same recipe for that, but with less gelatin this time. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The mold holds 3\/4 cup of water, so I used 1\/2 cup of water to go with the crystals, and the measurement worked out perfectly. \u00a0Make sure you spray the silicone mold before you work with it though, as it makes it way easier to get the gummies out. \u00a0If you&#8217;re impatient, like me, you can cheat the waiting time, and put the tray in the freezer for 10-20 minutes. \u00a0It helps the gummies set faster, but make sure you don&#8217;t freeze them into ice cubes!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><strong>Tetris Gummies<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Ingredients:<\/p>\n<div>\n<ul>\n<li>2 envelopes (14 grams) unflavoured gelatin<\/li>\n<li>1 package (85 grams) flavoured Jello<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 cup boiling water\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/1HBhFQO\" target=\"_blank\">Tetris silicone mold<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/DSC_5778site.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-6699\" title=\"How to Make Tetris Gummies\" src=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/DSC_5778site.jpg\" alt=\"How to Make Tetris Gummies\" width=\"601\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/DSC_5778site.jpg 800w, https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/DSC_5778site-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 601px) 100vw, 601px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>Procedure:\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>\n<ol>\n<li>Spray mold with non-stick spray, and wipe with a paper towel.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Combine gelatin and Jello in a medium size bowl.\u00a0 Stir until crystals are combined.<\/li>\n<li>Boil water.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Add boiling water to gelatin mixture, and stir until dissolved.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Empty liquid into a pour-able container and carefully pour into the cavities of the Tetris mold. \u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Place in fridge for 1-2 hours. \u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Carefully remove gummies from the mold.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>These are best consumed within 2-3 days and can be kept in a sealed container. \u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Nintendo_Gameboy_site.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-6700\" title=\"Nintendo Gameboy Tetris Gummies\" src=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Nintendo_Gameboy_site.jpg\" alt=\"Nintendo Gameboy Tetris Gummies\" width=\"601\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Nintendo_Gameboy_site.jpg 800w, https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Nintendo_Gameboy_site-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 601px) 100vw, 601px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"addtoany_share_save_container\"><div class=\"a2a_kit a2a_target addtoany_list\" id=\"wpa2a_1\"><a class=\"a2a_button_facebook_like addtoany_special_service\" data-href=\"https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/?p=6696\"><\/a><a class=\"a2a_button_twitter_tweet addtoany_special_service\" data-count=\"none\" data-url=\"https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/?p=6696\" data-text=\"How to Make Tetris Gummies\"><\/a><a class=\"a2a_button_google_plusone addtoany_special_service\" data-annotation=\"none\" data-href=\"https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/?p=6696\"><\/a><a class=\"a2a_button_pinterest\" href=\"http:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/add_to\/pinterest?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Fcookiescupcakesandcardio.co%2F%3Fp%3D6696&amp;linkname=How%20to%20Make%20Tetris%20Gummies\" title=\"Pinterest\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/plugins\/add-to-any\/icons\/pinterest.png\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Pinterest\"\/><\/a><a class=\"a2a_dd addtoany_share_save\" href=\"http:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share_save\"><img src=\"https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/plugins\/add-to-any\/share_save_171_16.png\" width=\"171\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Share\"\/><\/a><\/div>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\nwpa2a.script_load();\n\/\/--><\/script>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 80&#8217;s was a wonderful time. \u00a0I got my first (and only) Nintendo Game Boy. \u00a0It was such a fight to get from my parents as they were convinced video games would rot your mind.
