Notes
This recipe makes about 90 1-inch gummy bears (30 of each flavor).Store the gummy bears in an airtight container in the refrigerator.For firmer gummies, place the unmolded gummies on parchment paper in a single layer. Refrigerate them uncovered for 12-24 hours.To keep the gummy bears from sticking together when stored, toss them in a small amount of cornstarch or arrowroot powder.
