Who doesn't love gummy candy, and who doesn't love LEGO?

5 years ago I was fascinated with it, wondering how it was made, and what gave it its gummy texture. It feels so good on the teeth to bite into it, and my kids go crazy for them .. so I spent a bit of time researching how they're made commercially.

My biggest motivation for doing this was to see if we could make our own at home, and I'm actually still trying to figure out how to make gelatin and corn syrup from scratch, so if I can figure out how to do that, maybe I'll show how to do it in another project video.

Only a small handful of you have ever seen the LEGO Gummy video I made in 2010, and that's because it was nearly 5 years ago, before I really got serious about making videos. I took it off my channel in 2012 because I had full intentions of making a better version, so here it is .. 3 years later! :)

Now I wanted to make candies that made people look twice, and LEGO bricks instantly came to mind because what's more awesome than LEGO and gummy put together? But I wasn't sure where could you get a mold for making LEGO bricks.

To my amazement, not only had he shown how to make a mold for making LEGO candy, he also made LEGO gummies as well!

I played around with loads of variations in recipes to see what texture and tastes I liked the best. And I've kept experimenting off and on for the last 4 years, using my kids and wife for feedback. They gobble them up no matter what variations I use, but I've finally settled on 1/2 cup of very cold water, 1/4 cup of corn syrup, 2 packets of unflavored gelatin, and 1 pack of Jell-O. I've found that the corn syrup seems to help smooth out the texture and the taste.

If you try making this recipe, it's very important to start the gelatin in cold water. Stir it up, then let it sit for 5 minutes before you turn on the heat. Otherwise, you'll get gobby clumps of undissolved gelatin in your syrup that doesn't look very appetizing.

I originally made my silicone mold with a 2 part mix from a special effects supply company. I used real LEGO bricks set on a LEGO base, and built a makeshift retaining wall with bricks and play-dough. I don't plan to make a tutorial on how to make the mold, but I want to do a video on how to make a silicone mold in general. It's amazing to see how much detail the silicone can transfer to the final gummy products. If you look closely at my candies you can even see the little “LEGO” text on top of the gummy LEGO studs.

To make sour gummies, we often add citric acid. They are incredible! But if you don't have citric acid, try taking SFHandyman's suggestion and add vitamin C. The citric and ascorbic acids in the vitamins sour them the same way, which actually makes them taste just as great, and enriches them with vitamin C as well.

It’s just unfathomable that he is gone, I use to think he was the coolest person on earth when I was around 8. To think he’s gone is just so tragic, the things he would have done if he was still here would have been absolutely amazing.

This man played such a huge role in my childhood, it still makes me sad to this day knowing that he is no longer with us, he may be gone but will never be forgotten. Long live TKOR you will always be loved❤️❤️

[pillowmasterlololololol]

Finally, we can step on lego's without dying. This is evolution.
You reached the peak of human inteligence, thank you.

I remember like 6 years ago, me, my grandma, and my brother all gathered together to watch this, she had just got these little lego molds because she knew how much we loved them. She made a bunch of them, and we absolutely adored them all. I wish she was still here to make candy with us 😢

[makinaburg]

RIP, you’ll be greatly missed my condolences to the family 🙏🏽😢💜💜

[nicholasm]

I'm crying right now. It's great seeing him alive and happy, just enjoying himself making delicious Lego gummies.

[syedprohor]

Rest in peace brother😢
The world will never be the same without you.

[TheGuyReer]

This video was that video you love years ago and randomly remember years later. It feels great coming back.

[PedroHernandez-tzri]

RIP thank you for making the childhood of a lot of people brighter 😔

i actuality cried when i heard he died because when i was 6 five years ago i watched so many of his videos and now that hes dead i just want to cry when i think of it too much

[the.abhiram.r]

used to watch this man's videos all the time on my ipad in second grade. he actually inspired my science fair project in fourth grade and i made a holographic projector from one of his vids. never tried the lego gummies myself, but this was one of my favorite videos (along with the styrofoam slicer and aluminum smelting ones). can't believe it's been 4 years since he passed now. 😔

[animantis]

I’m so surprised TKOR is gone... this is the first video I’ve ever watched of his... R.I.P.

You’ll be remembered 😢

[Ondori]

Grant's most viewed video. His legacy will live on in gdeat videos like this. You will never be forgotten ❤

R.I.P

I loved this video when I was a kid. Never actually did it until recently. Sad to hear the King is gone.

[TheLugiaSong]

Every few years I re-stumble on this video, go "I must make this!" And then forget. Rinse and repeat.

Plastic lego: Iam about to destroy your foot
Gummy lego: Iam about to destroy your stomach
I think both do same damage.

[awcy_rs]

it's so weird watching his videos when he's gone... I don't know how to feel... rest in peace man

[gravityfalls]

First TKOR video I watched, I came to pay my respects

[boxofcereal]

Watched this when I was 7 and was absolutely overjoyed after it worked. I literally just poured hot jello into a Lego ice cube mold but I didn’t care, it was one of the first things I made by my own hand.

[TheInfi]

Rest in Peace. His videos were the best, definitely.
