GUMMI CANDIES - What are they made of?
In case you were wondering gummies or jelly sweets are a broad, general type of Gelatin-based Chewy Candy along with mixture of sugar, glucose syrup, starch, flavouring, food colouring, citric acid.
GELATIN is a translucent, colorless, odorless, and nearly tasteless substance that is made by prolonged boiling of skin, cartilage and bones from animals. It's made primarily from the stuff meat industries have left over - we're talking about pork skins and cattle bones. Yummy!!
And while we're at it, ever wondered where the red dye in candies comes form? Some eyebrow lifting comments in this forum will shed some light.
