Did You Know Gummy Bears Could Be Healthy?

Homemade gummy bears are way healthier than store bought. We control the ingredients and the sweetness in these healthy gummies. I use frozen berries or 100% fruit juice, honey, and grass-fed gelatin.

Gummy Bear Recipe:
Ingredients:
Fresh/Frozen Version:
2 cups frozen wild or organic blueberries
5 Tbsp. + 1 tsp. Grass-fed gelatin
5 - 7 Tbsp of cool water
1 - 2 Tbsp. honey
Directions:
Place the blueberries in a microwave safe dish and defrost. Once soft, pour the berries into a blender and blend until smooth. Pour this into a saucepan over low heat. Add the honey and stir.
In another bowl combine the gelatin and the water. Add just enough water to moisten the gelatin when stirring. Let this sit for 2 minutes. Then place the dish into the microwave on high for 10 second increments stirring between heatings. I needed 2 ½ increments.
Once the gelatin is a liquid, pour it into the blueberry mixture and stir until fully combined. Let cool a couple of minutes and then fill your silicone molds with a dropper if you have one or you can spoon it in. Make sure to place the molds on a stiff cutting board that will fit in your refrigerator. This will help you avoid spilling.
Refrigerate for 20 - 30 minutes and then you can remove the gummies from the mold by pushing them out gently.
As per the video, if you don’t want to buy a gummy bear mold you can use an ice cube tray to try it out. Just be sure to grease the tray before adding the gummy mix.
Store these in the refrigerator for about a week in a ziploc bag or a covered container.
Fruit Juice Version
1 cup 100% fruit juice
2 Tbsp. grass fed gelatin
2 - 3 Tbsp. cool water
1 Tbsp honey or to taste
Follow the instructions above, omitting the blender portion. Enjoy!

Thank you for the recipe. I have got three batches in the fridge now. Strawberry and soursop, sweetened with honey and monk fruit. 🥰👍

[@RockinRobinCooks]

Sounds great!

[@carrington2949]

Which uses less to sweeten for you - honey or monk fruit?

[@siriussaracen8371]

Hi i have a question, how long would these gummy bears be good for before they go off? and should they be stored in the fridge? thanks

[@msr1116]

I love those adorable baby bear molds and happy that you've been uploading again. I continue to enjoy your Mexican dishes from years ago.

[@RockinRobinCooks]

I haven't really stopped uploading. I wonder if you just stopped getting notifications when I do? Glad you are enjoying my Mexican dishes! Have you seen my latest video on Mango chicken salad? Here is a link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5qYaZeZl8ainrM

I've tried like 10 different gummy bear recipes and they never turn out.. I hope this works!! Thank you so much, I think ill give it one more shot as I don't need gummy bear trays laying around for nothing lol!! For sure I will do blueberry and maybe tart cherry juice??

[@RockinRobinCooks]

Good luck Rachel, I hope they turn out for you! Let me know.

[@pricer39]

Pineapple juice and some other fruits (I can't remember if it's Papaya or mango or both) but I think they also have enzymes that digest protein (I think gelatine is a protein). Cheers!

[@dralsabah]

Thank you so much for this gr8 recipe...just wondering do they have to be kept refrigerated all the time ( I live in the hot region of middle east)😅

[@RockinRobinCooks]

You might want to experiment with that. If it's really hot where you are, then it might be a good idea.

[@GbengaArije-el2lt]

I love this recipe

[@RockinRobinCooks]

Glad to hear it!

[@paulinewatkins8327]

Does heating the gelatine affect the nutritional value?

[@rassp3860]

These look great! Do they need to be stored in the fridge or can they stay at room temperature?

[@RockinRobinCooks]

Store these in the refrigerator.

[@rassp3860]

@@RockinRobinCooks thank you! Can’t wait to make these!

[@AzwanShah08]

Hello! How long would these typically last? Would you be able to advise what to add to preserve them for longer shelf life?

[@TasharaTube]

One week in the fridge

[@ColleenSangster-tz7hv]

I can't seem to find the recipe. How much gelatin? Is it 6 tbsp or 6 tsp?

[@elenakesterson71]

How many spoons of gelatin? I couldn't find the description

[@Mrs.IndiYoung]

Loved the joke, God bless you, Robin!

[@user-xz5cn6hb5t]

how long they last for?

The chef joke really tickled me pink (bear necessities). 🤪

[@OSlipkoHypnotherapy]

How can you make it without microwave?

[@theperfumechronicle2023]

Can this last for months

[@Ftybr57]

I use silicone mini ice trays

[@RockinRobinCooks]

That works great I bet!

[@Suepotter59]

Can you use regular gelatin or does it have to be beef gelatin?

[@RockinRobinCooks]

You can use regular gelatin like Knox if you want but I have never used it. So can’t say for sure how it will work but I’m guessing it would.

[@Suepotter59]

@@RockinRobinCooks thank you!

[@BrilliantTeele]

My mom makes jello with fruit, juice, and gelatin, but she's never tried gummies. Are these more of a gummy or the texture of jello?

[@RockinRobinCooks]

I think they are more of a gummy in texture.

[@nicolecortes5305]

my daughter has a fructose intolerance and can't eat honey or agave. Can i add just regular sugar to the berries

[@RockinRobinCooks]

Yes, I believe you can use regular sugar though I haven't actually tried it but it should work.

[@peggyreid6836]

Robin, was wondering if I could use Splenda instead of honey? I'm allergic to honey.

[@RockinRobinCooks]

I’d rather see you use maple syrup if that works for you.

[@ryanwr56]

Why not just add the gelatin to the hot berry mix. Seems like an extra step that’s unnecessary, microwaving it. Will be trying this recipe with pineapple and blueberry. Thanks

[@beprominent7860]

You can’t add hot liquid to gelatin, it has to be cold or room temp liquid then you add the hot liquid when it blooms.

[@beprominent7860]

I just saw what you meant haha, my apologies. Yes it kind of is unnecessary but it makes it certain that there won’t be any clumps of gelatin throughout the gummy.

[@freespacejunkremoval]

How do you call beef gelatin healthy..

[@RockinRobinCooks]

Beef gelatin can be seen as healthy due to its protein content and potential benefits for joint health.

[@timaddison307]

these are just I'm making these. and I'm making the blueberry ones logistic zactly like she did cuz I like blueberries but these be so good. What a great candy to have around

[@adrianatavison9437]

SO awesome I can eat gummy bears again! Was allergic to all others so this make my years❤❤❤❤🥰

Maybe you were allergic to all the artificial ingredients. I hope these work well for you. Let me know.

Made this today and just come iut like jelly not gummys :( don't know what I did wrong

[@kezif]

Not a gummy bear at all but looks nice

[@Pakistani_Dramas_Channel]

❤ hi from pakistan 🇵🇰

[@jimbarczynski5331]

This is just a jello but not gummy bears, they use pectin in the store bought gummy bears but not gelatin

[@pricer39]

Gummies have twice as much gelling material added compared to jello -so they are harder than jello

[@KaZuYoO908]

what if i didn't microwave the gelatine

[@newbtuber333]

Won’t activate as well

[@suzanamiljenovic8525]

You can put it in a sauce pan on a low heat, just until it turns into liquid. Watch over it. Do not boil it!

[@ashleybullmore]

Right, I don't even own a microwave and haven't by choice in 16+years

[@pricer39]

​@@suzanamiljenovic8525 will too much heat make the gelatin break down?

[@timaddison307]

these would be by far the most expensive gummy bears I've ever even read about

[@cortextickle]

Idk if the comments on this are bots or not, maybe people are just ok with the the taste of death in place of delicious sugar and chemicals in regular gummies lol...seriously if the holocaust had an official flavor these would be it. I used the exact same gelatin, etc. I followed the recipe to a T and these things taste like pure gelatin powder. It's so damn strong you can barely even taste the berries. Honey doesn't make any difference. I even dumped a ton of sugar in to try and fix the mix and while that made them slightly more tolerable, they were just fowl. There are plenty of healthy gummies on the market and these just aren't it...they're too nasty to eat. Adding in mushrooms normally downgrades the taste of any food, but in these I couldn't taste the shrooms I added, just a ton of nasty gelatin flavor. The only reason I even ate all these terrible gummies was to not waste my shrooms I regretfully used in this recipe.

[@pricer39]

You should probably never do this again then. Totally bad experience for you it sounds like. So sorry it didn't work for you. Cheers!

Why do healthy people all look old and sick?

[@GloriaHernandez-ew3md]

These look good and seem healthy, except why would you use a microwave if your intent is to be healthy? It ruins the "healthy" recipe.
