These homemade gummy bears use real fruit juice and gelatin for a simple, reliable texture. The process is quick, low-stress, and easy to repeat.
Prep Time 10 minutes mins
Cook Time 5 minutes mins
Chill Time 2 hours hrs
- 1 cup 100 percent fruit juice
- 3 tablespoons unflavored gelatin powder
- 2 tablespoons honey
Pour the fruit juice into a small saucepan and sprinkle the gelatin evenly over the surface.
Let the mixture sit undisturbed for 5 minutes to allow the gelatin to bloom.
Place the saucepan over low heat and gently warm the mixture while stirring slowly.
Continue stirring until the gelatin fully dissolves and the liquid looks smooth, about 3 to 5 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the honey until fully combined.
Carefully pour the mixture into silicone gummy bear molds, filling each cavity evenly.
Transfer the filled molds to the refrigerator.
Chill for at least 2 hours, or until the gummies are fully set.
Gently remove the gummy bears from the molds before serving or storing.
