Gummy in your tummy
The ultimate treat for that sweet tooth, Candylicious just brought the world's first 3-D printer for gummy worms, the Magic Candy Factory, to the Middle East. The printer allows you to customise the gummies with names, greetings or other personal details and these cool creations can last up to a year. You also have the option of making them in exclusive shapes such as sharks, dinosaurs and (this one's our favourite) the Dubai skyline - all in flavours like mango, lemon and cherry. The printer takes only five minutes to create these wacky gummies, so what are you waiting for? Head over to their store in The Dubai Mall to get your hands on these unique sweet treats
