Steps:
- 1. Begin by heating up the cherry juice in a heavy-bottomed pot. 2. When the juice boils, turn down the heat to a simmer and add the sweetener. Be sure to taste the juice after it's added to adjust to the level of sweetness you'd prefer. Make sure the sweetener dissolves and is still simmering. 3. Add the gelatin. Mix well so that it completely dissolves. A whisk works well here. 4. Take the mixture off the heat and working quickly, dropper out the liquid into the sprayed molds or pour it into your sprayed glass baking dish. 5. Let the gummies set up completely. Remove them from the molds/glass dish and place them into an airtight container for storage.

EXTREME SOUR GUMMIES
Pucker up for these sweet and sour gummies, which pack some serious punch thanks to a secret ingredient -- citric acid -- which you can buy online or at any specialty baking store. Just make sure to enjoy them immediately once you've tossed them in the sugar mixture or they will become sticky.

Steps:
- Put two 50-count silicone gummy bear molds on a baking sheet and lightly spray with nonstick spray.
- Combine the flavored gelatin powder, unflavored gelatin powder, 1 tablespoon of the citric acid and 1/2 cup cold water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat, stirring frequently so that the sugar does not stick to the bottom of the saucepan, about 4 minutes. Do not boil.
- Pour the mixture into a small liquid measuring cup. With a spoon, skim off any bubbles that have formed. Carefully fill the molds and gently shake to ensure the mixture settles to the bottom. Refrigerate until set, at least 2 hours.
- Combine the sugar and remaining 1 tablespoon citric acid in a medium bowl. Carefully remove the gummy bears from the molds and toss in the sugar mixture. Enjoy immediately.

Tips:
- Use fresh cherries: Fresh cherries will give your gummies the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh cherries, you can use frozen cherries that have been thawed and pitted.
- Make sure your gelatin is dissolved completely: If your gelatin is not dissolved completely, your gummies will be lumpy. To dissolve the gelatin completely, sprinkle it over a small amount of water and let it sit for 5 minutes. Then, heat the mixture over low heat, stirring constantly, until the gelatin is dissolved.
- Don't overcook the gummies: If you overcook the gummies, they will be tough and chewy. To prevent overcooking, remove the gummies from the heat as soon as they start to thicken.
- Chill the gummies thoroughly: Before you eat the gummies, chill them thoroughly in the refrigerator. This will help them to set and firm up.

Cherry gummies are a delicious and healthy snack that are easy to make at home. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a batch of gummies that are perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth. So next time you're looking for a healthy snack, give cherry gummies a try!
