    Gummy Bear Fruit Snacks

    These yummy gummy bear fruit snacks will put a big smile on your family's face.

    Why use Welch's Grape Juice?

    Welch's Grape Juice tastes amazing and uses Concord Grapes.

    The dark, thick purple skin and crunch seeds of the Concord grapes contain powerful plant nutrients called polyphenols.  

    Polyphenols play a role in a healthy heart by promoting healthy circulation and blood pumping.

    Welch's Juice is also Non-GMO, gluten free, and does not have artificial flavors, or added sugar. It is loaded with Vitamin C.

    Steps to make

    Follow these easy steps to make homemade gummy bears.

    • Combine Welch's 100% Grape Juice, honey, and Gelatine in a sauce pan.
    • Heat mixture until it is completely dissolved and forms a runny texture.
    • Using a dropper, add Gelatine mixture to your gummy mold.
    • Then refrigerate gummies for about 2 hours to set.

    How easy is that? This is such a great, delicious, heart-healthy snack perfect for eating at home or on the go.

    Note: I use Lizber Gummy Bear Molds 3 Pack , Silicone Candy Molds 50 Cavities with Bonus Dropper (Blue , Green , Red) for my mold.

    You can use other shaped candy molds also, but I suggest using Silicone. It makes removing the gummies easy.

      I didn’t have grape juice, so I used Apple juice instead. And they turned out great.
