‘’Let's understand Gummies making with natural colors’’
The idea behind gummy vitamins is to make them more appealing (read: sweeter) than ordinary vitamins so that people will be more likely to take them. Gummy supplements really contain fewer vitamins and minerals than conventional supplements, according to Doctors.
The natural food colours on the market now differ from those accessible only a few short years ago.
Several developments in new hue and colour options, as well as numerous reductions in cost-in-use, have been made in order to overcome the fundamental technological issues in fruit snacks and gummies. I'm eager to highlight some of Sensient's most recent developments in these three fields.
We have organic certified food colors
In order to meet the rapidly expanding demand for organic options across all food sectors, Santacolor has been devoted to developing the widest selection of USDA Certified Organic food colour solutions. Today, we provide a complete selection of certified organic hues in almost every hue.
From our certified organic portfolio, the following products are suitable for gummies and fruit snacks.
Organic beets may be heat-sensitive depending on the length and intensity of the gummy or fruit snack manufacturing.
When ascorbic acid is present and at certain pH levels, organic anthocyanin colours will shade shift. Since organic turmeric is a pure pigment, it would need to be heated in order to take on the characteristic yellow hue, and it is also light-sensitive like all turmeric.
You can always rely on my team of passionate colour specialists to guide you through the various intrinsic qualities of our organic and natural food colours. They can make sure you have the ideal option for your formulation, processing conditions, and packaging design.
We are best in market
We have been rigidly working on lowering the cost-in-use of natural colours to facilitate innovation for food producers through our R&D teams, agronomy programme, and strategic acquisitions. We have advanced significantly with several of our colour options.

General knowledge for customers
- Low pH brilliant blue and green continue to represent a significant gap in the natural colour market. These hues are particularly difficult because blue is a crucial component of green yet is quite scarce in nature.
- FDA spirulina limits add even another level of intricacy to the situation.
- Spirulina colour is currently permitted for usage in ice cream, confections, gelatin, frostings, and confections.
- Blues and greens from spirulina are the only possibilities that are practical for gummy confections because the majority of fruit snack companies do not identify their product as a confection.
- Innovating with our present blue vegetable juice and spirulina gives us an excellent platform for developing natural green food hues, even as we continue to look at new technology techniques that might make this rare possible in the coming years.
- Many of the heat-sensitive natural colour options might be used if natural colours were added after cooking throughout the production process.
Now know how to make gummies
Making a homemade healthy gummy
Note: Using the same procedure you can also go with different color of varieties but rest the procedure should be same in order to making yummy gummies from natural color in this example we will be using a color you can see beneath this.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cups freshly prepared (cold press is preferable) fruit or vegetable juice, or store-bought juice
- making sure it is 100 percent juice and preferably not from concentrate). Smoothie combinations are also fantastic!
- 4 tablespoons of gelatin (We prefer grass-fed gelatin, but you can get plain gelatin at your neighbourhood grocery store next to the flavoured Jello.
- In general, one gelatin packet equals one tablespoon, but to be certain, pour the packets into a bowl and use a measuring spoon.
- Depending on your preferences and how sweet your juice is, use 2-4 tablespoons of raw honey. You can also use stevia or maple syrup. You may need extra if your juice contains a lot of vegetables, but it is entirely up to you.
- For an optional extra flavour boost, use 1/2 teaspoon of organic pure vanilla extract.
- Optional: Any additional ingredients you would like to add, such as cod liver oil, elderberry syrup, or probiotics (to prevent or treat a cold) (immune system booster). Keep in mind that you can substitute these candies for multivitamins.
Making Process
- Fill a small-to-medium saucepan with juice. A few minutes should pass after the gelatin is sprinkled on top before it begins to "bloom"
- it will get wrinkly looking on the surface and all of the Gelatin's white powder will dissolve into the liquid. Mix the gelatin thoroughly once it has all dissolved.
- Then set the stove's medium heat on the saucepan. Don't let the liquid boil; just allow it to warm up. You want the gelatin to totally dissolve and become thin and runny
- It will be grainy at the beginning but after a couple of minutes in the heat it should dissolve completely). The honey, vanilla bean extract, and any additional ingredients should be added.
- In a loaf pan or your fun gummy moulds, pour the liquid into a small jar and place in the refrigerator for two to three hours.
- The Freshware 30-Cavity Silicone Mold, the Toy, Car, Block and Bear Chocolate, Gummy Mold,
- and the Kilofly Silicone Mold, Robot & Dinosaur are a few of kids favourite moulds.
- Take out of the moulds. They emerge instantly. Cut your gelatin into manageable squares if you're using the loaf pan.
- For around two weeks, store your homemade healthy gummies in the refrigerator in an airtight container. They will last if you leave them outside, but We advise keeping them in the refrigerator.
