Tonight is date night and hubby and I are going to see the new Iron Man movie. I have missed being able to have gummy bears with my popcorn at the theater...not anymore!!!!

1/4 Cup Water
3/4 teas Your Favorite Flavor of Mio/Dasani/Kroger Water Enhancer
18 g Unflavored Gelatin Powder

Or

3/8+ Cup Water
1 packet 2L packet Crystal Light
28 g Unflavored Gelatin Powder

Or

1/4 Cup Water
1/4 teas Your Favorite Flavoring Oil
18 g Unflavored Gelatin Powder
18 g Truvia - Powdered in a coffee grinder

Or

1/4 Cup Water
1 1/4 teas Your Favorite Flavor Extract
18 g Unflavored Gelatin Powder
18 g Truvia - Powdered in a coffee grinder

Choose your combo, mix everything in a 1 c glass measuring cup. Microwave for 30-45 seconds, stir well, microwave for 15-30 seconds longer (watch closely, you want so see it foam up but not boil or foam over the top of the cup). Pour onto a foil lined pan (I used a mini foil loaf pan) or into prepared candy mold. Place in freezer for about 20 minutes to set up. Cut into desired size bites and ENJOY!!!!

    @ AshJasper - One batch is about 4 oz, when cut up they are about the same size as an average size bag of gummy bears.

    @ladymiseryali - The cherry jello should work fine, just don't add any other flavor.
