Gummy Bears

Gummy bears are popular fruit-flavored jelly sweets shaped like small bears, most commonly made from sugar, glucose syrup, gelatin, and fruit flavorings. They were invented in Germany in the 1920s and have since become one of the most beloved confectionery treats in the world. In the kitchen, they are used as decorations for cakes, cupcakes, and desserts, or added to fruit salads and ice cream sundaes. They can also be melted down and used as a base for jelly glazes. Available in a wide range of fruit flavors and colors, they are a classic treat for children and adults alike.
