How to Make Candy Salad

Have You Heard of This Trend?

Candy salads are all over social media right now. 

If this is the first time you're hearing about this, it probably sounds a little weird. Candy and...salad? 🤔

But just hear us out! 

It's actually a really fun idea. We call it a "salad" only because we're mixing a bunch of different candies together – creating our own custom mix. No actual vegetables are involved (phew 😅). 

And if you're wondering – WHY? We've seen people make these for family movie nights, road trips, summer BBQs, kid's parties, and so much more! 

Think you might want to see what all the fuss is about? 

We created a Candy Salad recipe with candies we think would go well together – but you can also get creative and make your own. 

Life is Sweet's Candy Salad Recipe 

In a large bowl, add about 1/3 cup of each of these candies and mix evenly. This is enough candy for about 8-16 people (depending on how much these people love candy, of course).

🍬 Sour Watermelons 

🍬 Gummy Peach Rings (chopped)

🍬 Cherry Twizzler Bites 

🍬 Crunchy Gummy Bears 

🍬 Sour Strawberries 

🍬 Orange Slices 

This is just the right combination of colors, flavors and textures! And these candies are perfect for Summer. 😎
