These are great. My husband and granddaughter have been making these every year for Christmas since she was 2 years old. She is now 11 and this has become a tradition for her and her grandpa to do make each Christmas.

This receipe was easy to make, but I didn't like the jello flavor on popcorn. I will use the receipe again, but will use a couple of drops of food coloring in the melted marshmallow mix instead of jello. I wet my hands under the faucet every couple of balls and had NO sticky mess at all!

Made these for a birthday party. All the kids had one, not everyone ate them. I used purple jello mix and the color did not show up at all.

Loved it! Wanted to test it out before next week to see how it was. Gonna make grape and orange for Halloween and will probably make for other holidays in the future with the holiday colors.
