Raspberry Lemon Gummies
Gelatin is incredibly nourishing, rich in amino acids that support gut health, joint health, and skin repair. It’s particularly helpful for soothing the digestive tract and supporting a strong gut lining, which is especially important for little ones. The lemon offers a boost of vitamin C, while raspberries bring antioxidants and fibre. These gummies are quick to make and easy to store, making them a perfect wholefood snack to keep on hand.

Ingredients:
4 tbsp grass-fed gelatin
¾ cup water
¼ cup lemon juice
¾ cup frozen raspberries
2–3 tbsp honey (not suitable for babies under 12 months)
Method:
In a small bowl, combine the gelatin with ½ cup of water and set aside to bloom for 5–10 minutes.
Add the remaining ¼ cup water, lemon juice, raspberries, and honey to a blender. Blitz until smooth.
Pour the raspberry mixture into a small saucepan and add the bloomed gelatin. Warm over low heat, stirring gently, until the gelatin has fully dissolved (do not boil).
Carefully pour the mixture into silicone moulds or a lined container.
Refrigerate for 2+ hours or until set. Pop out of moulds or slice into finger shapes if setting in a tray.
Serving and Storage Notes:
Store in the fridge for up to 5 days.
For a softer texture, reduce the amount of gelatin slightly.

For younger babies, small shapes will be a choking hazard. Cut into finger-size strips.
