Low Carb Homemade Grapefruit Gummy Bears

Grapefruit gummy bears are my new favorite low carb snack! These low carb gummies are a delightfully tangy combination of sweetness and tartness. However, fresh grapefruits can vary in taste. Therefore, do not be surprised if you end up with a batch of bittersweet low carb grapefruit gummy bears.

This homemade low carb grapefruit gummy bears recipe could not be simpler. Simply squeeze about one half cup of grapefruit juice into a heaping tablespoon of unflavored gelatin. Gently stir until the gelatin dissolves and there are not clumps. Then, bring the mixture to a low simmer and you are ready for them to be molded!
