These little guys are the perfect snack when you’re feeling snacky, and they’re so simple to make that you don’t need to be a pro in the kitchen. Let’s get into it!

Method

Mix Your Ingredients

The first step in making these no sugar gummy bears is to combine your ingredients. Start by taking 1 scoop of Myprotein Clear Whey, which comes in a variety of flavors (I personally used the Vimto flavor, but feel free to use whatever you prefer). Add this scoop into a small mixing bowl. Then, measure out 1/4 cup of water and pour it into the bowl with the whey. Using a spoon, gently stir the mixture until the whey powder is fully dissolved in the water. You want the liquid to be smooth and free of any lumps, so take your time to mix thoroughly.

Heat the Mixture

Next, pour the mixture into a small saucepan. Heat the saucepan over low-medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. It’s important to keep the heat low and never let the mixture boil, as overheating could cause the whey protein to break down. The goal here is to warm the mixture just enough to help it blend smoothly while still maintaining the structure of the protein. As it heats up, you should notice the mixture becoming a bit thicker, but it should still remain pourable.

Pour Into the Molds

Once the mixture is ready, it’s time to transfer it into your gummy bear molds. For this step, I recommend using a small dropper or piping tool to make the process cleaner and easier. This allows you to carefully pour the mixture into the tiny gummy bear cavities without spilling, ensuring that the gummies come out looking neat and even. Gently fill each mold with the mixture, making sure not to overfill any of the cavities.

Chill

After the molds are filled, place them in the fridge to chill. Let the gummy bears set for at least 30 minutes. It’s crucial that you allow them to chill fully to achieve that chewy gummy texture. The cool temperature helps the mixture solidify and take shape. Be patient, as rushing this step could result in the gummies being too soft and not holding their form properly.

Enjoy!

Once the gummy bears have chilled and set, carefully pop them out of the molds. The texture should be firm, and they should hold their shape well. These gummies make for a perfect sugar-free snack, and you can enjoy them right away! Store any leftovers in the fridge to keep them fresh for a longer period.
