Step-by-step guide

Build

In a bowl, mix the LorAnn Gummy Mix with water according to the package directions (typically 1 part mix to 1 part water by volume).

Microwave the mixture in 15–30 second intervals, or heat gently on the stovetop, stirring until fully dissolved and smooth.

Flavour

Once the mixture is fully liquefied but not boiling, add your flavour and optional ingredients: 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of flavour concentrate per 100g of gummy mix. Stir thoroughly to combine.

Finish

Carefully pour the mixture into silicone gummy moulds using a dropper or spoon. Let the gummies set at room temperature for 30–60 minutes, or refrigerate for faster setting, following the gummy mix instructions. Once firm, gently remove them from the moulds.

What else can you add to gummies & jellies?

Customise your gummies with a few drops of food colouring to achieve your desired colour, or add suitable supplement powders such as vitamin C, magnesium or collagen, depending on your recipe. Citric acid can also be used in suitable recipes to add a tangy, sour flavour to your gummies. Cornstarch may help reduce sticking when used appropriately.

✦ Peach + Magnesium: Relaxation support 
✦ Cherry + Collagen: Skin & joint health 
✦ Lemon Lime + Electrolytes: Great post-workout gummy 
✦ Apple + Fibre: Digestive support 
✦ Raspberry + Multivitamin: Everyday nutrition

What flavours work well in gummies & jellies?
Tips for best results

✦ Don’t overheat the mixture after adding flavour – high heat can dull intensity.
✦ Use dropper bottles for easy mould filling with minimal mess.
✦ Refrigerate gummies to set faster, but allow them to come to room temperature before eating for best texture.
✦ Test flavour strength with a small batch if using supplements, as some powders may slightly alter the taste.
