Kool-Aid Gummy Treats – Fruity, Chewy & Fun to Make!


  • Author: Imili Johnson
  • Total Time: 1 hour 5 minutes – 2 hours 5 minutes

Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup (240 ml) cold water
  • 1 packet (0.14 oz) Kool-Aid drink mix (any flavor)
  • 3 tbsp unflavored gelatin (about 3 packets)
  • ½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar
  • Cooking spray (for molds, optional)

Instructions

Preparation:

1: Bloom the Gelatin

  1. Pour cold water into a small saucepan.
  2. Sprinkle 3 tbsp unflavored gelatin evenly over the water.
  3. Let it sit for 5 minutes so the gelatin can absorb the water and bloom.

2: Heat & Dissolve the Ingredients

  1. Turn the heat to low and begin stirring.
  2. Add the Kool-Aid mix and granulated sugar, stirring continuously.
  3. Heat for about 3–5 minutes, making sure the mixture does not boil, but all ingredients dissolve completely.
  4. Once the mixture is smooth and slightly thickened, remove from heat.

3: Pour into Molds

  1. Lightly spray silicone molds with cooking spray to prevent sticking. (If using a baking dish, lightly grease it and line with parchment paper.)
  2. Carefully pour the warm mixture into the molds using a small spoon or dropper.
  3. Let the gummies sit at room temperature for 10–15 minutes, then transfer to the refrigerator for 1–2 hours to fully set.

4: Remove & Enjoy!

  1. Once firm, pop the gummies out of the molds.
  2. If using a baking dish, cut them into bite-sized pieces.
  3. Enjoy immediately or store for later!
