Making a GIANT NERDS GUMMY CLUSTER?! ✨Recipe: Ingredients: • 3 cups gummy bears • 2 cups Nerds candy Directions: 1. Preheat your oven to 200°F. Place the gummy bears into a large, oven-safe half-sphere silicone mold. 2. Bake until the gummies are fully melted and fused together, about 20–30 minutes depending on thickness. 3. Remove from the oven and let cool until firm but still slightly warm and flexible. Carefully remove from the mold and gently roll or shape it into a smooth ball. 4. Pour the Nerds into a medium bowl. Drop in the gummy ball and roll until completely coated, pressing lightly so the Nerds adhere. 5. Let set for a few minutes, then enjoy this giant upgrade to a classic candy! 🍬✨

⚠️our scans are recorded in Europe ⚠️ Florida tested 46 candies for heavy metals in January 2026. Nerds Gummy Clusters came back at 500 parts per billion of arsenic — 50x the EPA’s limit for drinking water. One movie-theatre box contains more arsenic than a child should consume in an entire year. 8 out of 10 Ferrara products tested positive. A class-action lawsuit was filed in February 2026. No recall has been issued. Ferrara hasn’t responded publicly. These are marketed directly to children with cartoon packaging and fun names. Scanned on the Exposr app​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
