Does anyone know of a good vegan gummy bear recipe?

Question

I know swedish fish and sour patch kids are vegan, but I would really appreciate a good vegan gummy bear recipe. Thanks!!:)

Answer 1

Assuming you can find the proper molds all you need to make your own is fruit juice concentrate processed without enzymes and agar. Use any recipe to make vegan jell (aka jello) but double the amount of agar.

You don't pour the unset agar/juice mixture directly into the molds. You have to make impressions of the molds into a bed of packed cornstarch and carefully pour the liquid into the molds and then set them aside in a cool place to dry (that can take several days depending on humidity). When the bears are dry you sift them out of the cornstarch, carefully dust/rinse excess cornstarch off, then mist and toss them with a tiny amount of oil to prevent the bears from sticking to everything they touch. If you want to make them sour you follow the oil coat with a dusting of ascorbic, citric or tartaric acid (that's what makes them sour).

Answer 2

I don't have a recipe, but Google "vegan gummy bears," and you will find that a company called Edward & Sons makes them and Vegan Essentials sells them (as do other online retailers). Edward & Sons makes a lot of vegan candies.

Answer 3

I don't know a recipe, but I can vouch for the fact that http://www.veganessentials.com sells gummy bears, and a whole lot of typically gelatine based sweets and candies for vegans.

I have to tell you though, I bought myself a pack and thought they were most foul. They might have always been like that though, I don't remember.

Good luck.

Answer 4

i do no longer understand of any recipes, although I definitely have examine that to apply vegetarian "jello", you may artwork in a diverse way from animal-based gelatin. although, there are vegan gummy chocolates. bitter Patch babies, Swedish Fish, and the "gummi" chocolates via Edward and Sons are all vegan.
