When Target was closing here in Canada, I bought all of their remaining DIY gum kits, with the intention of doing a review of the kits. Unfortunately I did not like the kit, and not wanting to give a product a negative review I just scrapped the idea, but still used the gum base from them. Finding gum base is actually pretty tricky! I know I&#8217;m in trouble when I can&#8217;t find something on Amazon. I was looking just for gum base for a place to send you all, but there isn&#8217;t such thing right now. My link to the gum base below goes to a DIY gum kit (not the one I didn&#8217;t like though!).<\/p>\n<p>Making the gum is surprisingly easy. Like crazy easy. By using the gum base, all you&#8217;re actually doing is adding sweetener and flavouring to the gum. The gum base smells horrible by the way! You need a lot of flavouring to drown it out. The longer you knead in the icing sugar, the chewier the gum with be. Be careful not to touch the mixture when it&#8217;s hot though- I used a mini spatula to start the mixing\/kneading process.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><strong>Homemade Bubble Gum<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/DSC_9007site.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-8697\" title=\"jello bubble gum\" src=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/DSC_9007site-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"homemade bubble gum\" width=\"601\" height=\"338\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/DSC_9007site-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/DSC_9007site-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/DSC_9007site.jpg 1919w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 601px) 100vw, 601px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Bubble Gum made with Jello<\/strong><br \/>Ingredients:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>2 teaspoons Jello powder (Buy it here: <a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2cjmuLw\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/amzn.to\/2cjmuLw<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>1 tablespoon\u00a0light corn syrup<\/li>\n<li>3 tablespoons gum base (Buy it here: <a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2cGRa4T\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/amzn.to\/2cGRa4T<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>1\/2-1 cups icing sugar<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Procedure:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Combine gum base, corn syrup, and flavoring in a microwavable bowl.
