These homemade sugar-free gummy candies have zero carbs, so they make great low carb and Keto treats.
In the Venn diagram of my family’s food preferences, there is not a lot of overlap.
I’m on a low carb diet, and they are decidedly not.
But one exception to the rule is Jello.
We can all agree that it is delicious. And I just discovered that you can use it to make your own gummy candy at home. All you need is Jello, Knox Unflavored Gelatine and some candy molds.
My kids can’t tell the difference between sugar-free and regular Jello, so I’m able to trick them into eating sugar-free candy.
Which is excellent.

EmilyKrill says
July 27, 2019 at 9:49 amEach envelope has .25 oz of gelatin. It is such a small amount, I don’t think it would even register on a scale.

June 9, 2019 at 9:57 pmDo these stick together once set? If so what do you suggest to keep them apart? We are making them at a birthday party and sending home as part of the loot bag. Thanks

June 9, 2019 at 10:07 pmSorry, it’s been awhile since I made these. I don’t remember them sticking together too much. My advice is to do a test run before the party to make sure they don’t overly stick together. They are very similar to real store bought gummies, so hopefully they’ll be fine for the gift bags. I think it’s a great idea to send the kids home with sugar-free treats. Hope these gummies work out!

February 22, 2019 at 6:49 amCan you make these using Agar powder?
EmilyKrill says
February 22, 2019 at 8:43 amNo, I’m afraid not. Agar is much more powerful than unflavored gelatin (1 teaspoon agar powder is equivalent to 8 teaspoons gelatin powder) so the quantities just don’t work out.

February 8, 2019 at 2:46 pmDo you refrigerate ? After set
EmilyKrill says
February 8, 2019 at 2:48 pmYou can, but you don’t need to. Put them in an airtight container and they’ll last in the fridge or on the counter for up to 2 weeks.
