Squashes 2 flavours bubblegum and rhubarb and custard 300g

Gummies are primarily made from a blend of sweeteners like sugar and corn syrup, a gelling agent (most commonly gelatin, or pectin/starch for vegan options), and water, along with flavorings, colorings, and food acids like citric acid for tartness. Sometimes, a coating of vegetable oils or waxes is added to prevent them from sticking together.
 

Key Ingredients:

• Sweeteners:

  Granulated sugar, corn syrup, or glucose syrup provide the sweetness and help form the gummy texture. 

• Gelling Agents:

  • Gelatin: The most common ingredient, derived from animal collagen, giving gummies their characteristic chewy, squishy texture. 

  • Pectin or Starch: Used in vegan or vegetarian gummies as a plant-based alternative to gelatin, according to Wikipedia and Funingpu gelatin. 

• Water:

  Used in the mixture to dissolve the other ingredients and help create the right consistency. 

• Flavorings:

  Fruit extracts or artificial flavors are added to give gummies their unique tastes. 

• Colorings:

  Food dyes or other natural colorants are used to give gummies their vibrant appearance. 

• Food Acids:

  Ingredients like citric or malic acid are added to provide a sour or tangy flavor, as noted by Wikipedia and Environmental Working Group. 

• Coatings:

  A thin layer of vegetable oil or waxes is often applied to prevent the candies from sticking to each other.
