    Thank you for this recipe! We tried a couple batches then started experimenting. It was especially fun to let one pan set up, then cut it, rearrange the strips, and pour in a second flavor to get two-toned worms like the commercial variety. Our first experiment: 1/2 cup lemon juice, 2 pk knox, 12 pk splenda in an 8×8 pan makes a terrific lemon gummy worm.
