Instructions
 

  • Measure honey, juice and gelatin into a small sauce pan (or pot).  Heat on stove, stirring constantly ( or lightly whisk) until the gelatin is melted. Do not get it boiling hot - just very warm.
  • Remove from heat and pour into your molds.  Most gummy bear molds come with a special dropper to make this task easier.  Of course, these snacks can be any shape – you do not have to use the bear mold.
  • Prior to filling place your mold on a flat pan.  Silicon molds are soft and you need to be able to transfer the filled mold to the refrigerator.
  • Leave in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours. This gives the gelatin mixture time to cool and set up into a firm state.  Then, they will pop out of the silicone mold with ease.
    After removing from the mold, I suggest storing your honey gummy bears in the refrigerator. These are a lot of fun.

Notes

  • Use any unsweetened juice of your choice
  • Be sure to completely melt the gelation or the mix will not set
