I originally started making these little jellies as a quick craft fair item that would be really cute, but they’ve turned into a staple of my table and I still, a hundred or so later, enjoy making them! They also get bonus points for everyone seeming to love them and get excited about them. Who’d have known that such a little guy would be so popular! And now you can make your own!
