Ingredients
- 1/3 cup gum base
- 1/2 – 3/4 cup Dixie Crystals Confectioners Powdered Sugar
- 1/2 tablespoons light corn syrup
- 1 teaspoon glycerin
- 1/4 teaspoon citric acid
- 6 drops of strawberry flavoring
- 3 drops of red food coloring
- Parchment paper cut into 3-inch squares
Instructions
- Put gum base, citric acid, corn syrup and glycerin a bowl and microwave for 45 seconds.
- Stir mixture and put back in for 5-10 seconds intervals until completely melted.
- Add strawberry flavor and red food coloring and stir.
- Set aside two tablespoons of powered sugar to sprinkle over finished gum.
- Sprinkle 1/4 cup powdered sugar on parchment paper.
