  • Add honey if using and stir to dissolve
  • Remove ginger and turmeric pieces
  • Add orange/carrot and lemon juice
  • Sprinkle on gelatin and leave for a couple of minutes to ‘bloom’ (go wrinkly and absorb the liquid)
  • Add Camu Camu or Vitamin C powder
  • Place saucepan back onto low heat and stir until gelatin is dissolved and it looks like liquid again
  • Pour into moulds or for smaller babies you can pour into a Tupperware container (and later cut into finger shaped pieces).

  • * Tip - If you always spill your gummies trying to transfer to the fridge just leave them on the bench for half a hour and they will semi set! Easier to transfer.

Notes

AGE APPROPRIATE: when on 1 meal + a day
Gelatin helps to line your digestive tract and promote better digestion, ginger and turmeric have immune boosting qualities and are natural anti-inflammatories & orange, lemon juice and Camu Camu provide a hit of Vitamin C.
