Jolly Rancher Tanghulu
The Jolly Rancher Tanghulu trend involves coating fresh fruits like apples, strawberries or grapes with a hard candy shell made from melted Jolly Ranchers, creating a colorful and crunchy twist on the traditional Chinese snack, Tanghulu. Sarah’s version of this popular, vibrant social media trend is made with grapes for a unique mix of sweet, tangy, and fruity flavors.

Preparation
- Carefully thread 3 dry grapes on a wooden skewer. Repeat with the remaining skewers. Make sure the grapes are extremely dry so the candy can stick to the skin.
- Unwrap the sorted Jolly Ranchers and place them in a microwave-safe cup or bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals until the candy is bubbly and fully melted.
- Dip the grapes into the melted candy, coating it evenly. Place the coated fruit onto a ceramic dish or parchment-lined baking sheet to cool. Allow the candy coating to set and cool completely, about 10-15 minutes at room temperature.
