Wash and Dry: Begin by thoroughly washing your grapes to remove any pesticides or dirt. It's crucial to dry them completely as excess moisture can interfere with the candy coating process.

Choose Your Candy Powder: Select your preferred candy powder. The choice of flavor will determine the tanginess and sweetness of your candy grapes. For a classic taste, Jolly Rancher green apple or cherry Kool-Aid are excellent options.

Bowl Method: Place a handful of grapes in a bowl, sprinkle with your candy powder, and gently toss until evenly coated. This method is great for a lighter, more evenly distributed coating.

Bag Method: For a more hands-on approach, place the grapes and candy powder in a Ziploc bag, seal it, and shake until the grapes are thoroughly coated. This method often results in a more robust flavor.

Chill or Freeze: While you can enjoy your candy grapes immediately, some prefer them chilled or slightly frozen for an extra crisp texture. To do this, spread the coated grapes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and place them in the refrigerator or freezer until they reach your desired temperature.
