Best 4 Homemade Gummies Using Jello Recipes

HOMEMADE GUMMY WORMS RECIPE

Steps:

• Pour flavored Jell-o and unflavored gelatin packets into saucepan, then and add liquid and whisk to combine. Allow to sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes.
• Heat mixture in saucepan over medium-low heat, whisking continuously until melted and dissolved.
• Remove from heat and transfer mixture into silicone gummy worm molds, or silicone molds of choice. (I use a dropper/syringe to make this easier for me, adding ~5mL of liquid per gummy worm cavity.)
• Chill filled molds in refrigerator until hardened. (This should only take around 15-20 minutes.)
• Once set, peel gummy candies from molds and enjoy!
• Store gummies in the fridge in an airtight container, or leave them in the molds and cover until ready to remove and enjoy. Lasts up to 7 days.
• Yields 40 gummy worms. (Filled 2 of my silicone gummy molds.)

HOMEMADE GUMMY BEARS

Steps:

• Dust the gummy bear molds with a light coat of cornstarch. Set aside.
• In a saucepan place flavored jello and 2 packets of unflavored gelatin.
• Add ⅓ cup water.
• Mix together and let sit for 5 minutes.
• Place the pan on low-medium heat and whisk continuously until the powder is dissolved. This will take about another 5 minutes.
• Once dissolved use a dropper to place in molds.
• Allow gummies to sit for 5-10 minutes to cool. Lightly coat the backs of the gummy bears with cornstarch.
• Place the molds in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to fully cool and set.
• In a shallow bowl, add 1 tbsp cornstarch. Pop the gummy bears out of the molds and into the bowl.
• Lightly toss to coat the gummies evenly. The cornstarch will prevent the gummies from sticking together.
• Store in an airtight container.

EXTREME SOUR GUMMIES

Steps:

• Put two 50-count silicone gummy bear molds on a baking sheet and lightly spray with nonstick spray.
• Combine the flavored gelatin powder, unflavored gelatin powder, 1 tablespoon of the citric acid and 1/2 cup cold water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat, stirring frequently so that the sugar does not stick to the bottom of the saucepan, about 4 minutes. Do not boil.
• Pour the mixture into a small liquid measuring cup. With a spoon, skim off any bubbles that have formed. Carefully fill the molds and gently shake to ensure the mixture settles to the bottom. Refrigerate until set, at least 2 hours.
• Combine the sugar and remaining 1 tablespoon citric acid in a medium bowl. Carefully remove the gummy bears from the molds and toss in the sugar mixture. Enjoy immediately.

HOMEMADE GUMMY BEARS

Steps:

• Combine the fruit juice or lemonade, gelatin and sugar in a small saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring often, until the gelatin and sugar dissolve completely, about 1 minute (make sure there is no undissolved sugar stuck to the bottom of the saucepan). If any foam forms while stirring, skim it off and discard. Transfer the mixture to a small liquid measuring cup.
• Put the gummy bear molds on a flat surface and slowly fill each cup to the top. Give each mold a small shake to ensure the mixture settles to the bottom. Refrigerate until the mixture sets, about 10 minutes. Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
