Lovies. I'm going to share how I made a new candy box filled entirely with sour gummy bears. Sour gummy bears are one of my favorite candies but can be difficult to find where I live. When my husband took a trip to Oregon, I had him bring back a big bag of Albanese Sour Gummy Bears for me. Once they arrived, I got to work sorting the gummy bears by color to fill my new candy box.

Sorting the Gummy Bears

First, I dumped the entire bag of gummy bears into a large mixing bowl. This made it easy to sort through the candy and separate them by color. I started with the red gummy bears, making a small pile of all the red ones. Next was orange, then yellow. The green gummy bears were grouped together since there were two similar shades. I separated the blues and purples at first but ended up combining them since there weren't many of each color. Some of the gummy bears were hard to identify, either new shades I hadn't seen before or colors that were hard to distinguish.

Filling the Candy Box

Once all the gummy bears were sorted, it was time to start loading them into the candy box. I lined up the piles of different colored candies along the bottom. It created a colorful rainbow effect. There were so many green gummy bears that they took up a large section on their own. A few stray gummy bears I couldn't identify the color of went in last. The finished candy box looked bright and cute with all the sour gummy bears on display. Now I have an easy-to-access stash of my favorite candy anytime a sweet tooth hits.

Potential for Other DIY Candy Containers

The process gave me ideas for other homemade candy containers. Someone suggested making a candy drawer filled entirely with gummy bears, which sounded adorable. I may have to try that next. I could also sort other candies like Skittles or M&Ms in a similar way. Displaying candies by color in transparent jars or boxes is an easy and visually pleasing way to store treats. Overall, it was a fun project that resulted in an organized candy box filled with sugary goodness.
