The whole point of a pre-made gummy mix is to simplify the often difficult and tedious process of candy making. This gummy mix delivers on that idea and will have you whipping up molds of gummies in no time. You can easily infuse these by adding a concentrate when you add the flavour and colour. Be sure to mix thoroughly!
