I wanted to add this to the site because I get asked about it every once and a while from my followers on Facebook. It’s not something I would personally make but the color and concept of soda jelly is super fun! I have listed a few of the popular ones but I am sure if you can dream it and it comes in soda you can make it into jelly. It just takes a lot of sugar! Enjoy!

Posted on: March 7, 2020The recipe looks super easy! I am not judging anyone, but why would you make jelly out of soda? How do you use the jelly? Do you use it in cooking? I am Just really curious about this!
