Description
xHands-on edible science with a gross-yet-delightful gummy lab
Dive into a tasty science project with Thames & Kosmos Gross Gummy Candy Lab. This kit uses a plant-based, jelly-like ingredient called carrageenan, sourced from seaweed, to shape chewy gummies. Students and families can flavor their treats with mixed berry and green apple, and experiment with citric acid to create fun Sour gummies. The result is eye-catching, wiggly shapes—worms and spiders—that are as entertaining to mold as they are to eat. The setup blends curiosity, flavor, and basic chemistry in a kid-friendly kitchen activity.
What you make and how you learn goes beyond just candy. As you cook, you’ll observe how natural polymers behave and how texture changes with temperature, timing, and mixing. The included 16-page, full-color manual guides you through experiments and explains the science in plain terms, making the process approachable for curious learners.

- Follow a 16-page, full-color manual that blends experiments with clear scientific explanations.

Whether you’re a curious kid, a parent helper, or a science club organizer, this kit provides a creative, low-pressure pathway to explore how ingredients transform when heated, mixed, or flavored. It’s designed to be fun and educational, with plenty of room for experimentation and personal flavor twists. Use it as a weekend activity, a science fair precursor, or a casual learning session that feels more like play than instruction.
