Tasty, chewy gummy candy is a favorite of children and adults worldwide. Fruit flavored and brightly colored, gummy candies come in many shapes, ranging from bears and other animals to fruit and worms.
Ingredients
Candy makers make gummy candy from a mix of sugar, gelatin and glucose syrup combined with added flavors and colorings, according to the National Confectioners Association.
Melting
The gummy candy ingredients are heated until they melt together and form a thick, sticky gelatinous consistency.
Mixing
Gummy candy manufacturers fill large boiling pots with the candy, heating and constantly stirring it with big wooden spoons.
Molding
Hot, prepared gummy candy is poured into molds and allowed to cool to create tiny, individual gummy candies in a variety of shapes. The gummy candies are left for three to five days to completely cool.
Packaging
Factory workers separate cooked and cooled gummy candies and package them in individual boxes and bags, making them ready for sale.
