Katie recommends gelatin from grass-fed and pasture raised animals for the health benefits. Here’s what she uses https://www.perfectsupplements.com/Perfect-Bovine-Gelatin-p/ps-gelatin.htm?Click=92884

Freezing shouldn’t harm it.

Does freezing decrease the medicinal properties? Do you know if I freeze the syrup if it destroys the medicinal component?

I used 2 gummy molds from JoAnns but had lots of left over that I put in a glass pan. I’ll buy 2 more molds

I agree the recipe needs updated to show room temp. Cooled to me means refrigerated. I should’ve read the comments first.

I would to make sure it dissolves without clumps.

That’s what happened to me too!!! It was so clumpy that I decided I would put it in the food processor to smooth it out – total mistake! smoothed out but quickly hardened so that I couldn’t even spread it in a pan, much less the molds. I’m afraid to make it again because I don’t know what I did wrong to correct it. I thought I followed the directions, except that mine was out of the frig too.
Help!

I wanted my kids to drink echinacea tea but they didn’t care for it, so I just had the idea to use freshly brewed echinacea tea in place of the water in the recipe. They don’t taste it but they’re getting the extra health benefits in their gummies. Just wanted to share my hack ?

In reply to Kathy.

I am wondering if it’s ever been tried with Apple juice instead of the water?

There isn’t a way to make them mold-proof, but you can freeze them to keep them good longer.

Little blue green mold covering the whole gummy and I had to throw them out. Is there anyway to make them drier or mold proof? I really did not want to put them in the dehydrator after making them as they’re so much work

Hi Katie! I’m wondering
1. would I be able to use agar powder instead of gelatin
2. Do you think it would make a difference if I reheat my elderberry juice
3. If using a glas pan can I just pour the mixture in coll in fridge and cut in squares?
Thank you so much!!!!

That’s the same question I need answered, how many mg are in a serving (or the entire batch, I can do the math). But I can’t find my recipe I used last year for the grandkids, where I use the capsules emptied into the liquid instead of the syrup. It’s a lot less expensive. I need to find the ratio using powder. So if you find out, let me know please. Thanks.

Hi Katie, I just made the same mistake as Jessica. In reading the recipe, I think it would be much clearer if you said that the elderberry syrup should be room temperature. I love your recipes and have been using them for years, so don’t intend to sound too critical. However, I wasted 3 cups of organic elderberry syrup that I can usually sell to my customers (a $50 loss). Not the end of the world. 🙂 I think some people won’t be jumping from a warm batch of elderberry syrup right to making gummies, and many will be taking a cold elderberry syrup from their fridge instead (like I was). Thank you again so much! You are an incredible resource.
