Matcha Gummy Bears Recipe
Description
Matcha Gummy Bears are made by heating water almost to a boil and dissolving gelatin, honey, and matcha green tea powder through vigorous stirring. The gelatin provides the gummy texture, while honey adds sweetness and matcha powder imparts a distinctive grassy, slightly bitter flavor unique to green tea. The blended liquid is carefully portioned into gummy bear molds placed on a baking sheet for stability.
After filling, the molds are refrigerated for at least 4 hours to allow the gelatin to fully set and firm up into chewy, bite-sized candies. The finished gummy bears combine a smooth, elastic texture with a strong matcha flavor balanced by the mild sweetness from honey. Once set, they should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness and firmness.
