Patriotic Layered Pudding Cups

I decorated my Patriotic Layered Pudding Cups with a beach theme in mind because we spend 4th of July at the beach every year. You can use any patriotic candies you find or use gummy worms to create a well known 'dirt cup' dessert.


Tip - When coloring your pudding, I suggest making slightly more blue pudding and the least amount of red pudding. If your cups are smaller in diameter at the bottom than top like mine you'll use less red pudding and the most blue pudding when creating the layers.
