Instructions
Prepare your silicone moulds:
Place silicone gummy bear moulds (or any small silicone moulds) on a tray for easy transfer in and out of the fridge.
Juice the fruit:
Use your Nama J2 to juice your chosen ingredients. Measure out 240ml (1 cup) of juice.
Reduce the juice to concentrate the flavour:
Pour the 240ml (1 cup) juice into a small saucepan and gently simmer over low–medium heat until it reduces by half to about 120ml (½ cup). This intensifies flavour and helps set the gummies.
Sweeten and brighten:
Stir in the maple syrup and lemon juice (if using) into the reduced juice.
Add agar and activate:
Sprinkle in the agar powder (or flakes) while whisking constantly. Bring to a gentle simmer and continue to simmer for 2–3 minutes, whisking, until the agar is fully dissolved and the mixture thickens slightly.
Fill the moulds:
Working quickly (as the mixture sets fast as it cools), use a dropper or small jug to fill your silicone moulds.
Set the gummies:
Transfer the moulds to the fridge and chill for 30–60 minutes until firm and chewy. Alternatively, freeze for 15–20 minutes for quicker setting.
Unmould and store:
Carefully pop the gummies out of the moulds and store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
