My kids love Gummy lollies so I thought I might try to make them myself but in a sugar free version. In Australia we have this great gelatine based product from Aeroplane Jelly called Jelly Lite. They are available from Woolworths and Coles in a large range of flavours. By I was able to purchase a range of shaped moulds from ebay including the pink and blue bear moulds shown below and different ice cube tray moulds with silicon easy release bases. The bear moulds shown below came with a syringe that can be used to fill the moulds neatly and easily with the hot jelly liquid. The great thing about this snack is that it takes no time to cool in the fridge as the pieces are so small. If you make several batches of different flavours you can have them on hand in the fridge for the kids to eat when they feel like something sweet.

themselves they are not strong enough to be used in a mould so extra gelatine powder is needed and less water than the normal recipe. I found that 4tsp extra gelatine was needed for 1 cup of water. 3tsp did not make a jelly hard enough to come out of the mould cleanly.
