Would You Eat This Homemade Gummy Chicken?


I got a big bottle of corn syrup a
couple boxes of blue jello and this
silicone chicken mold we cast from a
real chicken because in this video we’re
gonna see if we can make it gummy so
you’ve seen my videos of making Lego
gummies and this recipes pretty much can
be the same I’m just gonna make it about
eight times bigger and I don’t exactly
know how much gummies syrup I’m going to
need but I’m just going to make too much
and whatever’s left over
I can always remelt it use it for
another project anyway dang surprisingly
that sucked up almost all of the gummy
syrup there’s only a cup or so left in
there I thought we were going to have
like half of this leftover but know that
chicken mold just like sucked up the
entire batch that’s crazy now all we
have to do is give this thing 12 to 24
hours to set up and get firm and then we
can crack this open tomorrow morning and
see how it turned out now this might be
a good time to talk about the type of
silicone we were using the castis
chicken in my last video I saw a few
comments wondering if the silicone was
poisonous and if you were using
something like contractor silicone that
used for building houses then the answer
would be yes this has an acid in it that
will irritate your skin in your eyes you
don’t want to use general-purpose
silicone like this I was using a food
grade silicone which is specifically
made for handling food this is called
casting silicone emits the stuff that
comes in a two-part mix so you can mix
together I’ll put a link in the
description to where you can find a kit
very similar to the stuff that I was
using so here we are guys it’s been
about 18 hours I let this thing set for
about an hour and a half until it got
firm and then I put it in the fridge
overnight and now you can see it’s
actually quite gummy this thing’s
hardened up the point where I think we
can start peeling the mold off looks
like somebody else has been touching it
with their fingers – haha wonder if my
kids have been down here I got my drill
we’re going to unscrew all the bolts and
we’re gonna slowly peel this mold apart
and see what our ticket looks like
inside
there we go yes so there’s our silicone
block now we have to do is just gently
peel away at the edges here until the
gummy releases now when we’re taking
this out of the mold we want to be very
gentle with it we want to just gently
pry at the edges and as we do that you
can see the gummy kind of pulls away and
releases this is a really intricate mold
and I don’t want to rip the gummy so
it’s important we go really slow and
just be very careful what we pull out
here come take a look at this
[Music]
there we go I can feel it coming alright
so there’s one half of our mold and you
can see it’s actually genuinely starting
to look a bit like a chicken it looks
like it might actually work we got like
half of our chicken exposed there peel
this up on there just gonna do a little
episiotomy here there we go there’s our
little wingtip perfect chicken wing is
free the leg is free oh it came out yes
it came out and it’s perfect it’s just
unbelievable this is so realistic okay
let’s think I mean if you look at this
chicken it looks identical to the ticket
I got before
check out the wing here if I pull the
wing apart you can see it looks just
like a real chicken wing and the chicken
legs we could probably cut that off and
have a nice gummy drumstick the chickens
even got a tail if you lift the legs up
you can see you can even go inside the
chicken I mean this is kind of gross but
check this out this is where all the
chicken innards would have been how
realistic is this guys that’s
unbelievable so what do you think that
looks so gross oh it looks gross yeah it
looks just like a chicken but it’s blue
and like all the texture on the chicken
is so weird I know but the skin is the
best part yeah it looks awesome ly gross
yeah isn’t that cool though
and we got a mold so we can do it again
and again and again this is like
surprisingly true to life it’s almost
too good to eat we need to grab a knife
and carve this thing open and feed it to
the family
gummy chickens sure who wants the first
gummy drumstick
look at that
[Music]
now I had a little bit of leftover gummy
so I just poured it into these molds
that I made for my silver play button
and they’re really fun they’re really
stretchy really rubbery but they taste
amazing so there you have a guy’s a real
genuine gummy chicken made from a
chicken and because it’s a mold we can
reuse it over and over and over again
and we could probably even make
chocolate chickens that is so freakin
cool I can’t believe this worked out so
well thanks so much for joining me for
this experiment I’ll be looking for in
the next video
talk to you then mmm
gummy I think I’ve burned it a little
