Make These Fun Shark Suckers

Shark Suckers Recipe
Ingredients you will need
- 18 Jolly Ranchers, blue
- Airheads Candy, blue, red, orange, and green
- 6 Gummy Sharks
- 6 Sucker Sticks
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 275 degrees.
- Unwrap the Airhead candy and cut them in thin pieces, about 2 inches long to resemble sea weed.
- On a parchment lined baking sheet, place 3 unwrapped Jolly Rancher candies above each other making sure they touch. Repeat this with all the candies and make sure to leave space to add the sucker stick.
- Place the Jolly Rancher candies in your oven for about 4 to 5minutes. Keep a close eye on them because you must take them out just after they melt together.
- Remove them from the oven and immediately place a sucker stick on each one.
- Let them set up for several minutes until they cool down and aren’t hot but still tacky. Add 3 to 4 pieces of the sea weed and a shark on each one of them.
- Let them finish cooling.
- Enjoy your shark suckers!
