Homemade Gummy Peach Rings (made with Real Fruit and Gelatin)

These homemade peach rings are bursting with bright, summery peach flavor—made with real fruit and set with gelatin for that perfect bouncy, stretchy gummy texture.

Any gummy candy lover is surely familiar with peach rings, the bi-colored peach-flavored rings of jellied delight. And now you can make them at home using real fruit for a fresh peach flavor that pops.

Back on my candy-making train… this year the focus is peach, most notably, a homemade version of the classic peach ring.

Unlike my previous strawberry and raspberry gummy recipes, this recipe is gelatin based instead of pectin; my ultimate goal was to achieve the ultra stretchy, bouncy texture of a gummy bear, and you simply can’t do that with pectin alone. (I’m curious what a combo pecin-and-gelatin gummy might be, but that’s another recipe for another day).

The results are well worth the many rounds of tests it took me to get there, with a bright and peachy flavor and a stretchy texture that’s incredibly satisfying.

Do plan to give yourself a solid 2-4 days to complete the whole process, as the gummies need plenty of time to set and then to cure. That said, it’s only about 60 minutes of total active time involved, even if it is spread out over the course of a few days.
