# What You'll Need:

→ Filling

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

# Directions:

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 secure the candies inside.
04 - Using a sharp knife, cut each roll-up into 1-inch pinwheels.
05 - Serve immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 1 day to achieve a firmer texture.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • They're practically instant gratification—no oven, no waiting, just immediate edible art.
  • The variety of colors and candy shapes means you can customize them to match any party theme or mood.
  • Kids can help make them, which turns prep time into entertainment and bonding.
02 -
  • Don't over-pack the gummies—too many and they won't stay inside the roll, too few and you lose that delightful candy surprise in every bite.
  • A sharp knife makes all the difference when slicing; a dull one will squeeze and distort the pinwheels instead of giving you clean, pretty spirals.
03 -
  • For extra visual pop at parties, arrange the finished pinwheels on a white plate or platter so the colorful spirals really stand out.
  • If you want a tangy twist, lightly dust your roll-ups with a pinch of sour sugar or citric acid before rolling—just enough to balance the sweetness without overwhelming.
