Yields: Approximately 30 gummies
Prep time: 10 minutes  
Cook time: 10 minutes
Setting time: 2-3 hours 

Ingredients: 

• 1 cup fresh fruit juice (such as orange, strawberry, or a mix) 
• 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional) 
• 3 tablespoons CollagenX Bovine Gelatin Powder 
• Silicone gummy molds (or a small baking dish lined with parchment paper) 

Instructions: 

1. In a small saucepan, heat the fruit juice over medium heat until simmering. 
2. In a separate small bowl, sprinkle the CollagenX Bovine Gelatin Powder over the juice and let it bloom for 5 minutes. 
3. Whisk the bloomed gelatin mixture into the simmering fruit juice until fully dissolved. Do not boil. 
4. Remove from heat and stir in honey or maple syrup (if using). 
5. Pour the mixture into your prepared silicone molds or baking dish. 
6. Refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours, or until completely set. 
7. Once set, carefully remove the gummies from the molds. If using a baking dish, cut the gummies into desired shapes. 

Tips: 

• Feel free to experiment with different types of fruit juice for endless flavour variations. 
• For a stronger flavour, add a squeeze of fresh lemon or lime juice. 
• You can also add a teaspoon of your favourite extract (e.g., vanilla, almond) for an extra flavour twist. 
• Dust the gummy molds with a light coating of cornstarch before pouring the mixture to prevent sticking. 
• Store leftover gummies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
