Description
Class Experience
In this class students will learn how to make their own homemade gummy bears from scratch. Topics covered in class will be how to use real juice for sweetener and make our favorite candies a little healthier than the commercial processed gummies. Class breakdown will be juicing our own citrus fruits and working with gelatin. Then we will be adding our gelatin base into our gummy bear molds and allow to them to cool. My style of teaching is allowing students to follow along while I demo how to...
Ingredients: 2-3 big oranges or small enough to make 1 cup of juice or 1 cup of real orange juice plus 1 lemon, 2 tbsp unflavored gelatin, 1 tbsp honey or more, food dye, 2 tbsp sugar optional Equipment: Gummy bear molds (sold on amazon for under $10), small sauce pot, citrus juicer, spatula, dropper, small bowls to mix mixture, strainer Notes: Making Different Flavors Feel free to use different juices to create other flavors. Avoid pineapple, kiwi, mango, ginger root, papaya, figs, or guava juice. They contain an enzyme (protease) which can prevent gelatin from setting firmly. You can also adjust the amount of honey if you want your gummies to be sweeter or less sweet. Using The Right Mold Most small silicone molds will work with this recipe, so you can also get creative with the shape of these healthy gummies!
50 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
Stove will be used.
