Vibrant pinwheels of fruit roll-ups stuffed with assorted gummy candies, ideal for colorful snacks.

# What You’ll Need:

→ Filling

02 - 1 cup assorted gummy candies (bears, worms, fruit shapes)

# How-To:

01 - Unroll each fruit roll-up and lay flat on a clean surface or parchment paper.
02 - Arrange an even layer of assorted gummy candies along one long edge of each roll-up.
03 - Carefully roll up the fruit roll-up from the edge with the gummies, pressing gently to secure the candies inside.
04 - Slice each roll-up into 1-inch pinwheels with a sharp knife.
05 - Serve immediately or refrigerate up to 1 day for a firmer texture.

# Expert Hints:

01 -
  • Kids actually get excited to help make these, which means quiet time in the kitchen and genuine accomplishment on their faces.
  • No cooking required means no stress, perfect for last-minute gatherings or when you want something fun without the fuss.
  • The combination of chewy textures and bright colors somehow makes a simple snack feel like a special treat.
02 -
  • Don't overstuff the roll—I learned this the hard way when gummies started poking out everywhere—a single layer is actually perfect for both texture and control.
  • A sharp knife makes all the difference for clean slices; a dull one will squeeze the fruit roll-up and smash the candies inside instead of slicing through cleanly.
03 -
  • If a roll-up starts tearing as you unroll it, pop it in the freezer for two minutes—it becomes more pliable and forgiving without losing any flavor.
  • The freshness of your fruit roll-ups matters; older ones get sticky and harder to work with, so check your pantry and use the ones that have been sitting around longest.
