So cute and so much better for you then the store bought kind. Less expensive too! I’m printing off that coupon and getting some grape juice to make my own ASAP 🙂
These are adorable. I love how few ingredients there are, and I’m wondering if I could make them with agar agar to make them vegetarian.
I love gummy candies! But I especially love the idea of a healthy version!
Thank you so much for this natural. healthy gummy bear recipe. I just read where the store variety may contain some very unhealthy ingredients.
These are so much fun, and it doesn’t get much better than grape juice. I have some large gummy bear molds, but I need to pick up some of these tiny ones – they’re perfect!
How cute are THESE?! My kids will happily snarf these gummies down. I love that they’re a healthy snack too—SCORE!
OMG, my kids would flip if I made these for them.
Yum, my kids would love these!! Love that they are sweetened with honey. Now I just need to get my hands on some gelatin.
I would make these, they look so easy and kids would love them x
Do they have to stay refrigerated? These would be great as snacks for school
I would keep them refrigerated or in a lunch box with an ice pack. There are no added preservatives, so I am not sure if they would not go bad.
Where can I get the mini molds?

Already keeping in mind that moderation is best, do you know if there is a limit to how many of these can be eaten? Is a serving size 5-6 lil bears like would be in a snack bag? Is too much gelatin not good for you? Thank you!!!
Bre, I am not sure how to give you an exact answer, but there is much less sugar and preservatives in this recipe than buying the store bought almost candy gummies. They will also taste less sweet…. From what I understand, gelatin is actually good for you. I am not a nutritionist, so this is based on what I have read. Here a couple links about the health benefits of gelatin: http://www.ba-bamail.com/content.aspx?emailid=16012 and http://thecrunchymoose.com/gelatin/ Hope this helps.
