Has anyone done this? Darn- it would have been cute for halloween. the gummy worms could be up against the glass so you could see them in the layers. Maybe other gummy creepy crawlies...I wonder if they make eyeball candy etc. Now I'm going to have to try and remember this till at least next spring or fall....
 
Yes, many people have created layered gummy worm jars for Halloween. To create the jar, you need to start with a clear glass jar and layer it with different colors of gummy worms. You can also add other gummy candy such as eyeballs, spiders, and snakes to add to the spooky effect. Have fun creating your own layered gummy worm jar and make sure to take pictures to share with your friends!
 
I haven't personally tried this, but it sounds like a fun and creative idea for Halloween! I love the idea of using gummy worms and other creepy crawlies for a spooky effect. And I'm sure there are plenty of other gummy candies out there that could work as well, like eyeballs or even little bats or spiders. I'll have to keep this in mind for my next Halloween party! Thanks for sharing the inspiration.
