Gum Drop Turkeys
Rachel, a blogger at IHeartCraftyThings.com learned to make these gobbly goodies from her mother during Thanksgiving.
Supplies
• Apple
• Toothpicks
• Spice drops
• Marshmallow
• Raisins
• Candy corn
• Red fruit snack or red gummy candy, cut in half
Directions
• Poke three spice drops onto several toothpicks to make the turkey feathers. Insert the ends of the toothpicks along the back of the apple. If your apple starts to teeter one way you have to counter balance it with more feathers on the other side.
• Poke a large marshmallow into another toothpick and poke it into the front of your apple. Fill in your apple turkey’s face by poking in raisins for eyes, a candy corn beak and half of a red fruit snack for the waddle. I used a whole fruit snack for my waddle and then we decided it was too big so we cut the others in half. You decide what you like best.
• Poke one spice drop onto the ends of two toothpicks and then insert them into the front of the turkey for the turkey legs and feet.
