HOMEMADE SOUR GUMMY BEARS (REAL FRUIT)



Homemade Sour Gummy Bears (Real Fruit) image

Provided by Gemma Stafford

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup (200g/7oz) frozen fruit, defrosted (strawberries, blueberry, raspberry etc)
⅓ cup (70g/3floz) water
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons honey ((or agave))
4 teaspoons unflavored gelatin*
1/2 cup (4oz/115g) sugar (icing or regular)
1-3 tsp citric acid

Steps:

  • Puree the fruit in a food processor until smooth.
  • Combine all ingredients except gelatin, sugar (for coating) and citric acid in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir with a whisk.
  • When it comes to a simmer gradually sprinkle and whisk the gelatin into the mixture, stirring constantly. (Avoid dumping gelatin into pan all at once, which will cause big globs of gelatin to remain in finished product.)
  • Continue heating over medium-low heat until it comes to a simmer and all ingredients are well combined and gelatin is completely melted. (The mixture will change from a grainy, jelly-like consistency to a more glassy, smooth consistency when gelatin is all melted.)
  • Take it off the heat and pass it through a sieve to remove any gelatin of fruit bits. If there are bubbles on top remove with a spoon.
  • Place gummy bear mold on a cookie sheet (which makes it easier to move without spilling once filled). Pour mixture into silicone mold and place in the fridge for a minimum of 6 hours. Any air bubbles that appear just pop with a toothpick.
  • Carefully pop gummy bears out of mold and store in an airtight container in the fridge. They will keep in the refrigerator for a few weeks.
  • Mix together the sugar and citric acid and then toss in the gummies until well coated. Store in a container on the counter top. Do not place in the fridge as they will get slimy.

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup water
3 envelopes unflavored gelatin
2 packages Jell-O (any flavor)
1/2 packet unsweetened Kool-Aid (any flavor)

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Prepare the candy molds or an 8 by 8-inch pan by spraying them lightly with cooking spray. Be sure to get in all the cracks and crevices if it's a detailed candy mold.
  • Place the water in a small saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil.
  • Immediately add the gelatin, Jell-O, and Kool-Aid, and stir vigorously until all of the powder has completely dissolved.
  • Pour the candy into the prepared pan or spoon it into the prepared molds.
  • Place the pan or molds in the refrigerator to set for approximately 20 minutes. If you used candy molds, simply pop the gummy candy out of the molds. The candy in the pan can be cut into squares or a variety of shapes using cookie cutters.

Tips for Making Sour Gummies:

  • Blooming the gelatin: This process is essential for activating the gelatin and ensuring that it dissolves properly. It involves sprinkling the gelatin over a small amount of cold water and letting it sit for 5-10 minutes, or until it becomes spongey.
  • Mixing the ingredients thoroughly: Make sure to mix the gelatin mixture, fruit juice, sweetener, and optional flavoring until they are well combined. Any lumps in the mixture can result in a grainy texture in the gummies.
  • Using a silicone mold: Silicone molds are ideal for making sour gummies because they are flexible and easy to remove the gummies from. You can also use a candy mold, but make sure to grease it lightly with oil to prevent the gummies from sticking.
  • Refrigerating the gummies: After pouring the mixture into the mold, refrigerate it for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the gummies to set properly.
  • Coating the gummies in sour sugar: Once the gummies have set, coat them in a mixture of sugar and citric acid. This will give them a sour kick and prevent them from sticking together.

Conclusion:

Making sour gummies at home is a fun and easy process that allows you to customize the flavors and sourness level to your liking. With a few simple ingredients and a little patience, you can create delicious and tangy gummies that are perfect for snacking, parties, or as a gift. Experiment with different fruit juices, sweeteners, and flavorings to create your own unique sour gummy recipes.
