If we’ve learned anything in the last 66 years of Lego production, it’s that you can do almost anything with the tiny bricks, from building to fake estates to fake awards to even fake food.
Thanks to Grant Thompson, the self-proclaimed “King of Random,” has introduced us to yet another way to play with Legos: make your own, and make them edible.
To form the shapes, use Lego ice cube trays of both bricks and minifigures. After the gelatin has completely liquified, just pour it directly into the trays. If you see clumps and lumps forming in your syrup mixture as you pour it into the trays.
Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes, which will allow all the clumps to form a gooey foam that you can take off the top with a spatula. Now pour the perfected syrup into a squeezable condiment container so you have better control when filling up your molds.
Then give the syrup five hours to cool and soon you’ll have candy bricks to stack and gummy Lego characters to stand next to them.
Then voila! With a few tough silicone molds you have got yourself some create colorful, edible Lego bricks and minifigures.
