These delightfully chewy raspberry gummies are made with real fruit and set with pectin (indeed, there’s no gelatin required for this recipe, meaning they are vegetarian and even vegan-friendly)!
While it does require time and precision, making your own gummy candies is incredibly satisfying and well worth the effort, resulting in perfectly sweet, chewy fruit gummies bursting with bright raspberry flavor.
Before we get started let me clarify that these are perfectly innocent gummies, not those kinds of gummies, and I cannot and will not advise as to how to adapt this recipe to be those kinds of gummies. Just so we’re clear up front. All good?
Moving on.
The raspberry flavor is on point. Many gummy recipes are basically water, sugar and pectin with concentrated flavorings mixed in at the end.
Not this recipe, which is made using real fruit in the form of pureed fresh raspberries (strained, because, let’s face it, seeds would mar the perfection that is the chewy gummy texture). Frozen berries will work here too, with a few caveats (see the notes at the bottom of this post for more on that).
Pectin-based gummies, while they do take more time and precision to make than gelatin-based recipes, present flavors more cleanly and produce a vegetarian-friendly candy with a lovely jammy chew. Think of the texture like a really thick jam, as that is essentially what it is (compared to gelatin gummies which are more stretchy/rubbery). It’s like the difference between a gumdrop and a gummy bear.
