5 Different Flavors Homemade Gummy Bears 自家製小熊軟糖 (五種口味)

Are you ready for the summer?  I’ve been looking forward to our summer holiday since April! Ha!  Our family truly enjoy the summer holidays!  We love the days when we can sleep in, hang out by the pool or at the beach, cook something fun in the kitchen together, learn something, go somewhere adventurous, maybe explore places we’ve never step foot in, or simply doing nothing all day long!  But, I’m not so looking forward to the summer heat, both mentally and physically!




Today, I’ve got not just one cool recipe to share with you, but 5!   Check out these 5 Different Flavors Homemade Gummy Bears 自家製小熊軟糖 (五種口味)!  Not only they are fun to look at, fun to eat, they are truly quite fun to make as well!



 As you can see from the video tutorial above, I’ve got this cute little gummy bear silicone mold that comes with the dropper, that’s so convenience to use (I’ll also put the shopping link at the end of this post for your reference).  This mold gives nice details to the finish products, as you can see the eyes and toes of the gummy bears clearly! I think that’s totally awesome!  My Little Girl actually helped me made these gummy bears while I was testing the recipes!  We had a blast in the kitchen together!



Check out the recipes on how to make these 5 Different Flavors Homemade Gummy Bears, located at the bottom of this post.  The flavors are Lemon, Lime, Orange, Strawberry, and Blackberry, all made with fresh fruits and their juices!  These are not only delicious and fun, but actually good for you because they are packed with vitamin C and anti-oxidant!  I used a little cooking spray to grease my air tight container (for storage) so that the gummy won’t stick together.  If you plan to finish the gummy bears in a day or two, leave them at room temperature.  Otherwise, it might be a good idea to keep them in the fridge as they contain fresh fruits.  Just keep in mind that the texture might be firmer if you keep them in the fridge.   



As you can see from the picture above, I used up my entire collection of silicone mold!  Yes, you can definitely put these gummy in any molds you like, even just a rectangular tray if you don’t have a mold (you can see from my video above).  You can then cut the gummy out into different shapes with a cookie cutter.  I’ll list some of my favorite molds and cutters at the end of the post for your reference.




I hope you enjoy today’s recipes and tutorial!  Make some treats to celebrate the summer!  Whether you’ll be taking a trip, going on summer camps, relaxing at home, I wish you all a wonderful and fruitful Summer Holiday ahead!

Homemade Gummy Bears自家製小熊軟糖

Gummy Bears - Lemon
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons water
4 envelopes unflavored gelatin powder (28 grams total)
6 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon lemon zest
cooking spray to grease the container

In a medium bowl, combine 1/4 cup water, gelatin, and juice; set aside and let mixture rest for 5 minutes.

In a small saucepan, heat remaining water and sugar to a boil. Stir to dissolve the sugar. Then, remove from heat and add gelatin mixture.  Return to low heat, stir constantly until the gelatin mixture is completely dissolved.  Remove from heat and add the zest.

Let mixture cool slightly before putting it into the gummy bear mold. This mold I used comes with the dropper which was really handy and easy to use. (See the link at the end of the blog post on where to buy) You can also put the mixture in other silicone molds or small rectangular container, and cut gummy into cubes or different shapes with cookie cutters. It takes about 30 minutes to 1 hour for the gummy to set. Do not refrigerate.

When gummy bears are set, grease a container with cooking spray. Un-mold the gummy bears from the mold into the container. Gently toss the bears to coat in vegetable oil so they won’t stick.

Store at room temperature in a cool place. They are good for 2 day. Or keep in refrigerator for a longer shelf live. Just keep in mind the texture might be firmer if you store them in the fridge.
