Summer, sand and beaches all go hand-in-hand.

Therefore, no surprise then that my girls and I just love the beach in the summer time.  Plus, my girls are truly fish out of water and not only love the water, but the sand, too.

Beach Days for the Girls

See they absolutely love to ride the waves, but also play in the sand making sand castles and more.

Thus, my girls and I get to the beach as much as we can. But when we can’t still having a treat that reminds us of the beach and those warm, summer days is also fun.

So recently, we got to try SurfSweets Gummy Worms, which are available in local Target Stores. My girls absolutely loved how yummy this sweet candy treat were.  But they were a more healthy alternative to your traditional fruity, gummy candies.

SurfSweets Candy

See Surf Sweets Gummy Worms are actually made with organic sweeteners and also include 100% vitamin C per serving. But they are still a wonderful blend of tangy and sweet that are simply irresistible! So, now my kids can enjoy their favorite candy and feel great about your choice.

After seeing how much the girls enjoyed these gummy worms, I got an idea of a summer time treat I could create using them.

SurfSweet Gummy Worms

See in the fall and Halloween time, I always make them Dirt Pudding with Gummy Worms. But since it is summer, I thought it would be fun to make Sand Cups using these Surf Sweet Sour Worms for fun colorful summery garnish.

So what came about is now sure to be a summer time classic dessert for us and a #Momwin for this mom.

Now, check out Gummy Worms Sand Pails Recipe…

    This is adorable. I have never seen this. This was a great reminder for me to move my “summer stuff” Pinterest board up. We go away for the 4th and stay at a beach condo with a kitchen. I try to plan simple foods so I’m not taking a ton of stuff with me – this is PERFECT. My kids will love it.

  8. Jen says

    Yum, yum, yum! I want some. I think it would be a perfect choice for breakfast 🙂 I am so excited for summer and ice cream and gummy worms. I can hardly wait!

  11. Kathy Radigan says

    Love, love, love your recipe, that is way too cute and perfect for summer! Since my kids love candy worms I would totally pick them too, as well as the fruity bears! Thanks for the fun chance to win.

  13. Bill says

    Oh I love me some gummy worms! Yummmmmmmmmy!

    Happy Friday, Janine. It’s almost beach weather time. Get those bathing suits out of the closets.

  14. Carrie Groneman says

    What a fun post with the sun and waves! I’m so far from the ocean, and I do love to go there – would love to take my family some time! Those gummy worms and your recipe look amazing!!! The grand kids would certainly enjoy that, even if we can’t go to the beach 😉

  17. Tamara says

    I’d like to try the jelly beans!
    Scarlet is a huge fan of all of this. You just can’t resist it when you’re young, or even not, because Cassidy will eat all the gummy candy in the house!

  21. Bev says

    This is such a cute beachy summer treat! (I’m taking a little sugar break for a few days so my body is like “I WANT THAT!”) I love gummy candies, particularly of the sour variety so I’d definitely like to try the sour worms.

  22. Cynthia says

    Yum, yum! I love gummies and I love graham crackers. A win-win. Hehe.
    And while I was reading, that song, “I’m a gummy bear” totally came into my mind. If I’m not careful, it’ll stay in my head all day! LOL.
    Hope you have a wonderful Saturday!

  24. Aunt Gloria says

    What a great and fun dessert! I’m sure it will be a hit with the girls and friends. Have a good week ahead. Love to all……and hope this comment comes through!

  27. Seana Turner says

    Man, they really look like worms! Don’t think I could eat them, but I bet kids think they are totally fun:) Why not have a good time with treats, right?

  32. Kenya G. Johnson says

    I wish I had been blogging when Christopher was younger. I got to do some fun stuff with him that I found on Pinterest before “too grown for that”. Love the idea and I’ll be on the lookout for those in Target.
