1. In a small bowl, add ¾ cup cold water. Sprinkle entire contents of gelatin packet over water. Using a fork, gently push gelatin into the water until completely saturated. Set aside for at least 4 minutes to allow gelatin to bloom.

2. In a medium saucepan, add ¼ cup hot water. Add contents of gummy mix packet and turn heat to medium-low or low. Heat at a low simmer, stirring frequently, until mixture is smooth, and no lumps remain. While mixture simmers, brush sides of pan with a wet pastry brush to dissolve any remaining sugar crystals.

3. Remove pan from heat. Once boiling action ceases, add bloomed gelatin and stir until completely dissolved. Rest for 5 minutes to allow foam to rise to the top. Use a large spoon to remove and discard foamy layer.

4. Separate mixture into 2 separate bowls. Stir in ¾ teaspoon strawberry flavor and ¾ teaspoon lemon oil flavor. Add ½ teaspoon tart and sour and 2-3 drops red and yellow food coloring to each bowl. Mix well and pour the lemon and strawberry mixtures into two separate squeeze bottles.

5. Using the squeeze bottles, fill the mold cavities and allow gummies to set at room temperature for about an hour or until firm. Remove gummies from molds. Allow candies to air-dry at room temperature for at least 6 hours.

6. Store gummies in an airtight container.

Tip: To prevent the gummy worms from sticking while stored, coat container and worms lightly in coconut oil.
