Rainbow Candy Roll Ups (Printable Version)

Colorful chewy pinwheels featuring fruity roll-ups and gummy candies for a playful snack.

# What You’ll Need:

→ Candy Base

01 - 4 fruit-flavored fruit roll-ups, assorted colors

→ Filling

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

# Step-by-Step Guide:

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 starting from the edge with the gummies, pressing gently to enclose the candies.
04 - Cut each roll-up into 1-inch thick pinwheels using a sharp knife.
05 - Serve immediately or refrigerate up to 24 hours for a firmer texture.

# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • They come together in under 10 minutes—no baking, no mess, just pure snack magic.
  • Kids actually help without someone losing a finger, and they'll eat what they made without complaint.
  • The flavor combinations are endless, so no two batches ever feel the same.
02 -
  • Gummy candies that are too soft will dissolve slightly into the roll-up during storage—the texture issue that confused me until I realized it was actually creating a flavor fusion.
  • One firm cut beats three gentle saws; a sharp knife is your ally here.
03 -
  • A slightly softened roll-up (leave it out for 30 seconds) rolls more smoothly than a cold, stiff one.
  • Always arrange your gummy candies in a single, even layer—piles create lumps that split when you slice.
