So do you know how gummy candies are made? How do you make gummy candy from scratch?

Gummy practice:
Ingredients: 2 tablespoons of gelatin (about three sachets), 1/2 cup of cold water and 3/4 cup of boiling water, 2 cups of sugar, various colors of food coloring, spices, extra sugar, original cooking spray.
practice:

  1. Prepare the mold. To make a square rubber candy, you need to use a 9×5 inch bread baking tin. Spread the tin foil in the baking tin, spray a spray or coat with grapeseed oil or peanut oil to prevent the sugar from sticking to the tin foil. If you want to make more gumdrops, you need to prepare more molds in the same way. This method is also applicable to other types of molds. The only difference between them is that the thickness of the final sugar will be different. The larger the mold, the thinner the sugar. You can also use small molds to make gumdrops of different shapes.
  2. Soften gelatin. Pour the gelatin into a pot filled with half of the cold water, stir with a spoon, and set aside.
  3. Make syrup. In another pot, pour 3/4 of cold water and bring to a boil. After boiling, add sugar and constantly stir to dissolve the sugar completely. Simmer for 5 minutes on low heat.
  4. Mix the syrup and gelatin. Pour the hot syrup into a pot with gelatin and cook on medium heat for 15 minutes, stirring constantly.
  5. Divide the gelatin into portions. In a different bowl, pour the same amount of gelatin. Each bowl adjusts a color or taste.
  6. Add colors and spices. Add four drops of food coloring and 1/2 teaspoon of zest to each bowl. Add a little at a time until you feel the taste is right. You can try the following combinations, or you can play freely:
  7. Pour the flavored gelatin into the mold. Pour one color into only one mold, then put the mold in the refrigerator and chill overnight. To make a multi-layered gummy, you can freeze one color first; after setting the shape, pour another gelatin paint on top, and then continue freezing. After the adhesive is entirely frozen and shaped, cut it.
  8. Take the tin foil out of the mold. Hold the edge of the tin foil and pull it outward to lift the actual candy, and then place the tin foil on a hard surface, such as a cutting board.
  9. Cut the sugar. Use a sharp knife (and a little oil if necessary) to cut the gummies into small pieces. You can divide it into small pieces or cut it into other exciting shapes. You can cut faster with a pizza cutter. Use a cookie cutter to cut exciting shapes. You need to apply a little oil to the knife before cutting to prevent sugar from sticking to the blade.
  10. Dip the gummy candies in white sugar. Pour the white granulated sugar into the bowl, then put the gummy candies into the bowl and dip them, one side at a time. Put the gummy candy coated with white sugar on wax paper and leave it at room temperature for two days. In the end, you can make a “crispy outside and soft inside” gummy candy.

The above is the production process of making gummies for the home version. Of course, if you like to eat gummies, you should eat them in moderation. Since gummies are made of gelatin and other gelling agents, they are not easy to digest if consumed in excess, and it is not suitable for the body. It is good. Be careful when feeding young children. Large gumdrops are easy to choke.
