The B-Crafty “Express” is coming your way with the Valentine Candy Train. All Aboard for this timeless treat! B-Crafty made this craft for her son’s second grade class in 1996.
Issue #57
Occasion: Valentine’s Day
Category: Favor
Materials Needed:
- 1 Life Savers Roll – wild cherry flavor
- 3 Starburst candies (pinks and reds)
- 1 Valentine Hershey Kiss – wrapped in red foil
- 1 Mini Valentine Hershey Krackel bar
- 1 package Hubba Bubba gum (strawberry-watermelon flavor)
- 4 unwrapped peppermint candies
- Hot glue
Instructions:
- With the hot glue, affix the Life Savers roll to the gum package.
- Glue the 3 Starburst candies together in a stack formation and then glue the stack (on its side) to the Life Savers roll.
- Glue the mini Krackel bar on top of the Starbursts.
- Affix the Hershey Kiss on the front of the train on top of the Life Savers roll with the glue.
- Glue the 4 peppermint candies in place on the gum package. ¼ of the candies will hang below the gum package. Make sure the same amount of each peppermint hangs off the gum package so that the train is balanced and stands up straight.
B-Crafty Tip: If you give these Valentine Candy Trains as a Valentine gift, add a note that says one of the following:
- “I Cho-Cho-Choose You”
- “Are you on “track” to be my Valentine?”
- “Chugging down the line to be your Valentine”
