Homemade Gumdrops

First, let’s get a glimpse of these colorful and tempting gumdrops!

Ingredients:

2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup water
2 cups fruit juice (your choice of flavor)
1/4 cup corn syrup
1/4 cup gelatin (unflavored)
1/2 teaspoon citric acid (optional, for a tangy flavor)
A pinch of salt
Granulated sugar for coating

Instructions:

Start by preparing your workspace. Grease a baking pan with a bit of oil or line it with parchment paper to make it easy to remove the gumdrops later.
In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, water, and corn syrup. Bring this mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently until the sugar is completely dissolved.
Once the mixture is boiling, lower the heat. Next, add the fruit juice of your choice and stir well.
Sprinkle the gelatin over the mixture while stirring continuously. Ensure that the gelatin dissolves completely. If you’re using citric acid, add it now for that extra kick!
Allow the mixture to simmer for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. You want it to thicken slightly, but be careful not to let it bubble too much.
Once thickened, pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan. Spread it out evenly and allow it to sit at room temperature until it sets. This may take several hours or even overnight.
After the mixture has completely set, dust your countertop with granulated sugar. Turn the gumdrop slab out onto the sugar and use a sharp knife to cut it into your desired shapes.
Coat each gumdrop in more granulated sugar to prevent them from sticking together.
Store your homemade gumdrops in an airtight container, and enjoy them whenever you crave a sweet, fruity treat!

These homemade gumdrops are a wonderful way to satisfy your sweet tooth and a great activity to share with family or friends. Get creative with flavors and shapes, and have fun making your candy creations. Happy cooking!
