Gummibärchen

Instructions

1. Soak the gelatine in 30 ml of cold water for 5 minutes so it rehydrates.
2. In a saucepan, heat the rest of the water, the fruit juice, the sugar and the glucose over medium heat until fully dissolved.
3. Remove from the heat, add the drained gelatine and stir until it is completely melted.
4. Stir in the citric acid, the flavouring and the colouring if using, then pour the mixture into a jug to make it easier to pour.
5. Pour the mixture into the mould cavities, avoiding bubbles, then let it set in the fridge for 1 hour.
6. Gently pop the bears out and store them in an airtight container so they stay soft.
