I have tried making gummi bears but have the problem that they dry out very fast. I'd like to make gummi bears that could be eaten for a couple days. After five days they dried out so much it was impossible to chew them anymore.
Am I missing some other ingredient to prevent it from drying out after just a couple days? This is the recipe I used
0.5 liter water
20 g gelatine
1 teaspoon salt
325 g sugar (65%)
A dash of glucose syrup
Flavoring
Best Answer
Try 50/50 sugar corn syrup. The corn syrup may help with retention
