Cherry Gummies Recipes

TART CHERRY GUMMIES

Steps:

• 1. Begin by heating up the cherry juice in a heavy-bottomed pot. 2. When the juice boils, turn down the heat to a simmer and add the sweetener. Be sure to taste the juice after it's added to adjust to the level of sweetness you'd prefer. Make sure the sweetener dissolves and is still simmering. 3. Add the gelatin. Mix well so that it completely dissolves. A whisk works well here. 4. Take the mixture off the heat and working quickly, dropper out the liquid into the sprayed molds or pour it into your sprayed glass baking dish. 5. Let the gummies set up completely. Remove them from the molds/glass dish and place them into an airtight container for storage.

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.
