Gummy Bears....!

Ingredients


  1. 1
    In a medium sauce pan combine the first 3 ingredients, stir slowly over medium heat. You don't want to whisk it up because you'll get froth at the top.
  2. Step 22
    Take a candy mold and spray lightly with non-stick spray. If you don't have a candy mold use a 9×9 baking dish and cut them into squares, kinda like turkish delights.
    Once your mixture in the pan becomes clearish and not cloudy and more its ready to add your flavor extracts and a couple drops of food coloring, if you want and then to go in the molds.
    Its easier to pour this into a glass measuring cup with a pour spout to pour into the molds at this point.
  3. Step 33
    Pour liquid into your molds up to the edge. Allow to cool on the counter top for about 30 minutes and then turn out on to a cookie sheet.
  4. Step 44
    Store in a plastic bag in the fridge. Of course they probably won’t last that long!
  5. 5
    Variations
    Theres lots of things you can try with these like….
    Substitute 1 cup of herbal tea for one of the cups of juice for a nice change. I love hibiscus.
    Add a couple drops of food coloring for a brighter color( I don’t like to personally, but you might ;0)
    Substitute 1/2 of cup of apple sauce or pureed fruit for 1/2 cup of juice.
    Sour Gummys~ Take 1 TSP of citric acid and 1/2 cup of sugar and combine. When you pull your gummys out of the mold roll in the sour sugar for super sour gummys!
    Alternate Recipe~
    1 6 oz package of Jello mix
    5 packets of Knox Gelatine
    1 cup of water
    Follow instructions as listed. This makes a yummy, but less healthy version. ;0)
