Don't boil: Boiling the gelatin mixture can degrade its setting power. Gentle heat is key.

Use a dropper: A small dropper makes filling the molds much cleaner and easier, especially for intricate gummy bear shapes.

Grease molds: For very sticky juices or if your molds aren't perfectly non-stick, lightly grease them with a tiny bit of coconut oil before pouring.

Cold hands: When handling, use cool hands to prevent melting your delicious healthy gummy bears.

Storage: Store your homemade healthy gummy bears in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1-2 weeks.

Substitutions: Experiment with various 100% fruit juices like pomegranate, pineapple, or a blend. For a creamier texture, try half juice, half coconut milk. Adjust honey or maple syrup to taste, or omit entirely. Add collagen peptides, turmeric, or spirulina for boosters. Use any silicone mold (stars, hearts, squares).

Fresh Fruit: You can use fresh fruit by blending it with a little water, then straining out the pulp to get a smooth juice.

Gummies didn't set: Ensure gelatin fully dissolved and the correct amount of quality grass-fed gelatin was used.

Sour gummies: Add more fresh lemon juice or a tiny pinch of citric acid to the mixture before chilling.
