Homemade gummy bears are easy to make with 3 simple ingredients (one of them is Jello!) Kids will love these bouncy, fruity, and colorful little gummy candies!
Dust the gummy bear molds with a light coat of cornstarch. Set aside.
Combine one package of Jello, 2 packets of unflavored gelatin, and 1/3 cup water in a small saucepan. Mix together and let sit for 5 minutes.
Place the pan over low to medium heat and whisk continuously until the powder is dissolved. This will take about another 5 minutes.
Once dissolved use a dropper to place fill the prepared gummy bear molds with the gelatin mixture.
Allow gummies to sit for 5-10 minutes to cool. Lightly coat the backs of the gummy bears with cornstarch, then place the molds in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to fully cool and set.
In a shallow bowl, add 1 tbsp cornstarch. Pop the fully-set gummy bears out of the molds and into the bowl. Lightly toss to coat the gummies evenly. The cornstarch will prevent the gummies from sticking together. You can also do this step in a large ziplock bag.
Store gummies in an airtight container.
