Ingredients

Units Scale

Fruits and Liquids

  • 2 cups strawberries, diced
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp raw honey

Gelatin

  • 2 (0.25 oz) boxes unflavored gelatin

Equipment

  • Gummy bear molds

Instructions

  1. Blend the Strawberries: Place the diced strawberries, lemon juice, and honey into a blender. Blend thoroughly until the strawberries are fully broken down into a smooth mixture. If the mixture has many seeds, strain it through a fine mesh sieve to remove them for a smoother gummy texture.
  2. Heat and Add Gelatin: Pour the strawberry juice into a saucepan and place it over medium heat. Gradually add the unflavored gelatin while continuously whisking to ensure it dissolves completely. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then promptly remove it from the heat to prevent burning or gelatin degradation.
  3. Fill the Molds: Using the eyedropper provided with the gummy molds or a food squeeze bottle, carefully fill each mold cavity with the warm gelatin mixture. Take your time to avoid spills and ensure each mold is evenly filled.
  4. Chill to Set: Place the filled molds in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes to allow the gummies to firm up and solidify completely. To keep the remaining gummy mixture warm during this time, place your squeeze bottle in hot water or keep the saucepan on a warm surface.
  5. Remove and Enjoy: Once set, gently pop the strawberry gummies out of the molds. Enjoy this refreshing, chewy treat immediately or store them in the refrigerator for later snacking.

Notes

  • Using raw honey provides natural sweetness and adds a unique flavor, but you can substitute with other natural sweeteners if preferred.
  • If you want seedless gummies, straining the blended strawberry juice is key for smooth texture.
  • Keep the gelatin mixture warm while filling molds to prevent it from solidifying prematurely.
  • Store leftover gummies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
  • Gelatin boxes are typically 0.25 ounces each; ensure you use unflavored gelatin to maintain the natural strawberry taste.
