How can I make Trolli Pops?

I’m a big fan of Trolli Pops and gummies in general, and I’m interested in creating a healthier version using real fruit. I want to satisfy my sweet tooth while still working towards my weight loss goals. I’m open to using artificial sweeteners or honey. Also, keeping costs down is important to me, so I’ll be using reusable supplies. Any tips on how to make these?

    Making healthier versions of Trolli pops at home can be a fun and creative project! Here’s a simple recipe using real fruit, a natural sweetener, and gelatin to make your own gummy pops.

    Ingredients:

    • 1 cup fruit juice (choose your favorite, like orange, grape, or mixed berry)
    • 2 tablespoons honey or another sweetener (adjust according to your taste)
    • 2 tablespoons gelatin powder (you can use agar-agar if you prefer a vegetarian option)
    • Optional: fresh fruit pieces (like berries or diced mango for added texture)

    Equipment:

    • Silicone molds (these can be reusable and are great for shaping)
    • Popsicle sticks or toothpicks (for the pops)
    • Small saucepan
    • Mixing utensil

    Instructions:

    1. Prep your molds: Make sure your silicone molds are clean and dry. You can lightly coat them with cooking spray to help with removal later.

    2. Heat the juice: In a small saucepan, gently heat your fruit juice over low heat. Do not bring it to a boil.

    3. Dissolve the gelatin: Sprinkle the gelatin powder over the warmed juice and whisk continuously until it completely dissolves. This should take about 2-3 minutes.

    4. Add sweetness: Once the gelatin is dissolved, remove the saucepan from heat and add honey or your chosen sweetener. Mix until well combined.

    5. Incorporate fruit pieces (optional): If you are using small pieces of fresh fruit, you can mix them in now.

    6. Pour into molds: Carefully pour the mixture into your silicone molds, filling them about 2/3 full. Insert popsicle sticks or toothpicks into the center of each mold.

    7. Chill and set: Place the molds in the refrigerator for about 2-4 hours, or until the gummies are firm to the touch.

    8. Remove and enjoy: Once set, gently pull the gummies out of the molds. If they are sticking, you can run warm water over the outside of the mold for a moment to help release them.

    Storage:

    Store your homemade Trolli pops in an airtight container in the fridge. They should last about a week.

    Enjoy your homemade, healthier gummies! You can experiment with different juice combinations and sweeteners to find the flavor that you love the most. Happy snacking!
