In a small non reactive bowl combine gelatin and soda. After about 5 minutes, set the bowl over a pot of simmering water to dissolve the gelatin completely - until you can't see any granules. Remove from heat.

Using hand or stand mixer - mix 1/2 c. Icing sugar and citric acid into gelatin mixture. Keep adding the icing sugar1/2 cup at a time, until you have stiff fondant- like dough. It may be somewhat sticky. Turn dough out on to a work surface covered with icing sugar. Knead until dough is less sticky and can be easily rolled with a rolling pin.

This is the basic recipe. Now you can add any flavourings and colours you wish.Divide dough into as many as many equal pieces, starting with one piece of dough make a wall in the middle and add desired colour, knead until cohesive.set aside while you mix the other colours

Starting with one colour roll out to1/4 inch thickness, using a small round cutter, cut out as many circles as you can and transfer to baking sheet to dry. collect all the colours and re-roll and cut continuing until dough is gone

Collect all the colours and re-roll and cut continuing until dough is gone.

Roll the candy in candy wrappers if desired or store in an airtight container for up to 3 months.Don't worry they will be gone before that.
