How to Make a Giant Gummy Bear and other Gummy Candy

June 10, 2014 by Jenn

 Although I stupidly sound like this is a sponsored video, be assured that it is NOT!!  I paid $29 CAN for this fun machine at *cough* WalMart *cough* .   Would I admit that I shop at WalMart if I didn’t have to? 

This machine looked really cool when I saw it on the shelf (thanks to Paul for pointing me to it!).  I knew that if I had kids at home, I would love to hear an unbiased review of it before I committed to purchasing it.  So here it is . . . it is fun, bright, and easy to use, but if you already have silicone moulds at home, or know where to find them, you can save yourself $29 and use them and the microwave.

Making gummies is super easy, all you need is gelatin, Jello and water!  If you’re so inclined, so can replace the water in the mixture with fruit juice for an extra fruity flavour.  I believe that the required amount of unflavoured gelatin powder creates the perfect chewiness, but if you find it too chewy, you can cut back one package.   The molds that are included in the machine are for a giant gummy bear, gummy worms, gummy fish and other gummy bears.

 I hope you enjoy this review and making your own gummy bears!!
