Ingredients
For Orange Gummy Layer
- 2 tablespoons juice of an orange
- 1 tablespoon orange zest

For Chocolate Gummy Layer
- 2 tablespoons room temperature water
- 1 packet unflavored gelatin (one packet = 7g)
- 1 oz 90% or more dark chocolate (20 g)
- 2 tablespoons boiling water
- 8-10 drops liquid stevia or to taste
Instructions
For Orange Gummy Layer
- Mix orange juice, orange zest, unflavored gelatin and room temperature water together in a bowl. Mix well until all gelatin is absorbed and there are no clumps of powdered gelatin left.
- Add in boiling water and mix until no clumps of gelatin remain.
- Spoon mixture or use droppers to more accurately place mixture into silicone gummy bear molds. Only fill each slot in the mold 2/3 of the way, so there is room for the chocolate layer on top.
- Place mold in fridge until hardened, approximately 10-15 minutes.
For the Chocolate Gummy Layer
- Add room temperature water and gelatin together in a bowl and mix until well-combined. Add in dark chocolate and boiling water and stir until chocolate and gelatin are completely dissolved. Add in stevia to taste.
- Remove molds from fridge and add chocolate layer on top of the orange layer, which should have hardened by now. Return to fridge until chocolate mixture has hardened. Pop out of molds and place in an air-tight container. Store in the fridge for up to a week.
