Ingredients

  • 1 cup Fruit juice (any flavor, 100% juice recommended)
  • 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons Unflavored gelatin
  • 1 set Gummy bear mold

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, combine the fruit juice and granulated sugar. Stir well to dissolve the sugar.

Step 2

Sprinkle the unflavored gelatin over the juice mixture a little at a time, allowing it to absorb before stirring. Avoid adding the gelatin too quickly to prevent clumps.

Step 3

Place the saucepan over low heat and stir constantly until the gelatin and sugar have completely dissolved. Do not let the mixture boil.

Step 4

Once dissolved and smooth, remove the saucepan from heat and let it cool for 1-2 minutes until it is safe to handle.

Step 5

Using a dropper (often included with gummy bear molds), carefully fill each cavity of the gummy bear mold with the liquid mixture.

Step 6

Transfer the filled molds to the refrigerator and chill for 2-3 hours, or until the gummy bears are firm and easily pop out of the mold.

Step 7

Remove the gummy bears from the mold and store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week, or refrigerated for up to two weeks.
