In a blink of an eye, the end of the year, there are still more than 60 days to celebrate the Spring Festival. At this time of the year, whether it is a dessert shop, a private baking, or a housewife, you have to start making some sweets and snacks, whether they are packaged or given away, or you can keep them for your own food, to ask for a sweet good fortune during the New Year.

Take the gummy bears that my kids love to eat. In fact, you can make them yourself at home. You just need a small pot, boil it, stir it, pour it into a mold, cut into pieces and stick with powdered sugar. Homemade fruit jelly uses natural fruits, real materials, not fruity flavors, and it is safer to eat.

Next, take the production steps of raspberry jelly as an example to introduce the specific methods and operating points. At the end of the article, the recipes for orange gummies, mango gummies, passion fruit gummies, and pineapple gummies are attached. The production steps are the same.

Kitchenware and tools used: boiling pot, heat-resistant silicone spatula, kitchen electronic scale, probe thermometer, induction cooker or electric ceramic stove (temperature control).
Mold: Xuechu HELLOKITTY chocolate silicone mold (or metal mousse ring, glass box can be used).

Ingredients: 250 grams of raspberry puree, 250 grams of caster sugar, 50 grams of glucose syrup, 7 grams of pectin, 4 grams of citric acid, 4 grams of water. (This recipe comes from PH French dessert master ANDY)

Before making it, prepare the ingredients, analyze the ingredients and explain the temperature control:
1. Fruit puree:
(1) Fruit puree is a fine fibrous fruit puree with fruit particles, which is generally stored frozen. You can use puree or puree in this recipe, but don't use jam or juice. Different types of fruit purees have different properties, and the proportions of added pectin and sugar are also different. Please do not change the formula at will. Fruit puree can be bought in more professional bakery material stores, and common brands such as Baorong and Scrooge are also available. It is possible to peel and core the leftover fruits at home, and use a food processor to puree them directly (without adding water).

(2) The raspberry in this recipe is a sweet and sour raspberry, which can be replaced with strawberry, blueberry, or gooseberry. Strawberries will be available in large quantities after December, and they are just right for making soft sweets. If you like other fudges, please find the corresponding recipe at the end of the article.

2. Glucose syrup: The function is to maintain the elasticity and softness of the soft candy, which can be replaced by corn syrup or honey.

3. Pectin: plays the role of coagulation and fixation. NH apple pectin is used here, but other types such as FX58 can also be used. Please note: the pectin here is not mirror pectin for glazing. The mirror pectin cannot be solidified after heating, and it is not suitable for making soft candies.

4. Citric acid: It is a food additive that is allowed to be added to jams, beverages, cans and candies, and it is also widely present in nature. Adding citric acid to candies can harmonize the sweet and sour fruit flavor, promote pectin coagulation, and extend the shelf life of candies. You can buy them in general bakery stores. If you can’t find them, you can use a little lemon juice instead.

temperature control:
The boiling temperature in this formula should be controlled at 107°C. Different types of fruit jelly require different temperatures. For example, apricots and strawberries are all 107°C, but pineapple and orange jelly are 106°C, and mango is 105°C. Adjust arbitrarily, otherwise it will affect the effect of the finished product.

2. Pour the citric acid into the same amount of water to dissolve, mix the granulated sugar and pectin well (so as not to agglomerate when poured), and set aside for later use.

5. Pour in the glucose syrup, mix well and continue heating to 107°C.

6. When the thermometer shows 107°C, immediately pour the citric acid melted with water, mix well and pour it into a silicone mold.
Tips: The silicone mold needs to be smeared with vegetable oil first, which is more convenient for demoulding. If you use a metal mousse ring, put a heat-resistant greaseproof paper or silicone pad on the bottom, and then pour the boiled slurry.

7. Let it cool or refrigerate for half an hour, then it can be demoulded. Put the fudge in a large bowl filled with caster sugar or powdered sugar (outside of the indicated amount) and roll it so that all sides are evenly covered with caster sugar.

8. Don't put too many pieces at once to avoid sticking. The finished jelly can be stored in a cool and dry airtight jar at room temperature (24-28°C) for about 1 month.

Tips:

A. If a square mousse ring or glass box is used as the mold, in the last step, use a knife edge to remove the whole piece of fruit jelly from the mold, dip it in fine sugar, and then cut it into square pieces. It can be seen that with different shapes of molds and different varieties of fruits, a variety of fruit jelly can be made with different colors, tastes and shapes. Red fruit jelly is generally: raspberry, grapefruit, strawberry, etc.; yellow is generally citrus, pineapple, passion fruit, mango, etc.; green is kiwi, etc.; pink or white is peach, etc.; purple is grapes, etc.

B. Although the above approach seems simple, pay attention to the following points to ensure the success rate:
1. When testing the temperature of the slurry in the pot, the probe should go deep into the center of the slurry to measure the temperature, instead of letting the probe touch the bottom of the pot, otherwise the measured temperature will be inaccurate.
2. Before entering the mold, judge whether the cooked slurry meets the standard: drop a drop onto a refrigerated spoon or metal mold. After half a minute, if the slurry still remains spherical and does not spread or bloom, it means it is cooked. .
3. Otherwise, it means failure. The reasons may be:
(1) The concentration of fruit puree is not enough and there is too much water;
(2) The temperature test is inaccurate, or it does not reach 107℃;
(3) The amount of citric acid is too small.
4. Remedy: increase the cooking time, or use a little water to dissolve the same amount of citric acid and add it to the slurry to cook, then the above problems can be solved.
5. To keep the soft taste of the soft candy, do not cook the slurry for too long to avoid the taste is too hard.

C. Four flavors of soft sweets formula can be selected according to personal taste:
1. Passion fruit jelly—temperature 107℃—can make 18 pieces of 6cm cube jelly.
200 grams of sugar, 200 grams of passion fruit puree, 50 grams of glucose syrup, 10 grams of pectin, 5 grams of citric acid, 5 grams of water.
2. Orange jelly——Temperature 107℃
100 grams of granulated sugar, 100 grams of orange puree, 100 grams of glucose syrup, 10 grams of pectin, 8 grams of citric acid, 8 grams of water.
3. Mango jelly——Temperature: 105℃
227 grams of granulated sugar, 250 grams of mango puree, 50 grams of glucose syrup, 6 grams of pectin, 5 grams of citric acid, 5 grams of water.
4. Pineapple fudge-temperature 106 ℃
150 grams of granulated sugar, 250 grams of pineapple fruit puree, 25 grams of glucose syrup, 8 grams of pectin, 4 grams of citric acid, 4 grams of water.
