Thanks for the heads up on Mini Chiclets at CVS...

I made them for my granddaughters and the other children in the family this morning. They haven't seen them yet, but I know they are going to be a big hit! Hint: If you cannot find mini Chiclets gum, cut the regular size ones in half!! Very easy to make :D

We made these last Thanksgiving and they were a hit! We are making them again this year.

This was so much fun to make and super easy. My son and I will definitely make again for our upcoming family events. We used yellow cake mate writers icing from the bakery isle instead of the chiclets gum it was easy to work with and for moms who don't allow their children to have gum this is a great alternative.

These were easy to make. Had fun doing it and I found the mini chiclets at CVS. They carry the mini ones all year around. Came in a variety pack, but has yellow, green, red, orange and a few other colors in the package. Have fun.....

My 6 year old grandson and I made these last year and we had the best time. It was easy enough for him to be able to help and the kids in his class loved them. We had trouble finding the gum but used part of a candy corn for the buckle. Worked great and looked just as cute! Planning to make them again this year.

It was very easy to put together & took no time at all. The kids in my granddaughters 1st grade went crazy over this.

Kids have been making these every year since recipe came out and they already asked this year! They are able to do them themselves while I'm in the kitchen - its wonderful. Tic tacs are what we've always used too.

The kids especially loved these. I reserved a couple tablespoons of the white frosting and colored it orange. piped dots instead of the chiclets.
