Low Carb Gummies – Keto, Gluten Free, THM FP, 3 Ingredients

My kids gobble up gummies faster than I can make them. I’ve been thinking about how to cut back on the ingredients and cost and I found a great solution. True Lime and Lemon drink packets. This has the flavor and sweetener all in one. They do have one gram of sugar per packet but each packet makes more than a dozen gummies.

Low carb gummies are a favorite snack in my house. They are basically free food. They are low carb, low fat, and low calorie. In Trim Healthy Mama foods that are low carb and low fat are called fuel pulls. Gummies are one of the best fuel pulls.

 

I also love these drink packets. My kids love them too. Our favorite is the True Lime Watermelon and you better believe I’ll be making gummies out of those soon. I get these True Lime Limeade Black Cherry packets every month in my Amazon Subscribe and Save. They come to $1.76 a box and help me hit my five items needed for the 15% Subscribe and Save discount.

Any silicone mold will work. Gummy bears, lego men, hearts, stars? Amazon has all of them.

We already sampled a few low carb gummies before I took a pic. This is one batch of this recipe. It makes a ton of gummies.

Blender method:
  1. Put the gelatin into a blender. Remove the center spout from the lid and grab a dish towel. Pour the hot water on top of the gelatin. Cover the open hole with a dish towel folded over a bunch of times. The hot water will spurt up. Blend for a minute or two until the gelatin is dissolved. Add the drink packets and blend for another minute. Pour into silicone molds and refrigerate until firm.
Bowl method:

  1. Put 1/4 cup cold water in the bottom of a medium sized bowl. Sprinkle the gelatin on top. Let sit for 5 minutes. Pour 1 3/4 cup boiling water over the bloomed gelatin. Whisk until the gelatin dissolves. Add the drink packets and whisk until smooth. Pour into silicone molds and refrigerate until firm.

  3. Is it possible to replace the true lemon packets with something else for more flavor variety? Also, I have some gummy bear molds on the way for my gummies. Going to try this recipe first :)

    • They have a lot of different flavors of the lemonade and limeade. Any sugar free drink mix should work. I have a few other gummy recipes too: https://joyfilledeats.com/?s=Gummies

    • I'd use half the amount listed. I haven't tried making these with true lime. It should work but I don't know how much you would use.

  5. Oh my gosh! I'm an adult, my children are grown, there are no kids here. I wanted something for dessert that would be a little sweet, light and low carb. These are GENIUS! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!

  6. I can't wait to try these. I use the true lime cherry thingy in my GGMS everyday and my kids are always wanting those. Do you think I could use some acv swapped with some of the water to give it an added health benefit?

  8. These gummies are so cute and I love how easy it is to change up flavors. My kids are going to help me with this project since they will love making them and seeing how they come out of the molds!

  10. These were fantastic - I love how easy they were to make the kids helped me make some Lego sets which they enjoy taking in the lunch boxes to school.

  11. I made them using ratio of 1 cup close to boiling water, 4 TBSP gelatin and 3 (3 gram) packets. The flavor, sweetness and firmness came out great! Used black cherry (liked that best of all), watermelon and peach lemonade. Thanks so much for the recipe!

  12. I would give this recipe a freaking one hundred stars! It is so quick and so super easy to make! I need gelatin to get relief from joint pain especially in my hands! I make these and I put them in my hot tea! I know its crazy but I love the lemon flavor and the sweetness it gives my tea and I love the relief it gives my joints! Thanks so much for this recipe! You have helped me in so many ways!

    • They are more chewy than jello but less chewy than a store bought gummy bear. You can always add more gelatin to make them chewier but you end up being able to taste the gelatin. It's a fine balance.

  16. I made these and they were really good - but is there a way to reduce the amount of foam on the back? Some of my gummies were mostly foam. Thanks for your help!
    Reply

    • That will vary depending on the size of your gummy mold. These have very few calories, etc. so you could really eat them all if you wanted to.

  20. These were so good! I cannot believe how easy it was to make them. The whole process took 10 minutes. I prefer my gummies to quite firm so I used 12 packets of gelatin. (3 boxes). I also will use an extra drink packet or two for more flavor. Other than that, amazing and cheap healthy snack!

  21. I bought True Lime Limeade (watermelon and black cherry flavors) today for the first time, and I have two different size packets--3 gram packets and 12 gram packets. Which size did you use in this recipe? Thank you.
    Reply

  23. I have a ton of the true lime and lemon packets and would love to make more, but my packets don't have any additional flavoring. I thought maybe rasberry extract, but was afraid to put much in. Therefore, little to no flavoring. Do you have a suggestion on what I could add? I love the wasy recipe!
    Reply

    • Are these the Lemonade and Limeade packets with sweetener? Or just the lemon and lime ones? You need the ones with sweetener or you will have to add your own.
      Reply

  25. Thanks for the recipe! I've tried making these twice from the THM cookbook and I just can't get the flavor right. I tried the lemon ones and the berry ones from the cookbook. I found them flavorless and I even tried adding more sweetener the 2nd time. My kids won't eat them either. Do you find these have more flavor than the THM cookbook ones? I'm willing to give it another try. :)

    • I just poured it into the molds anyway. They mostly dissipated in the fridge while they set. That is why the bottom of the gummy looks whitish. From the bubbles.

  29. What size flavor packets are used? The tru lime and tru lemon drinks come in single serve packets And the big 2qt packets.
    Reply

    • I've never seen the 2qt packets. I just used the single serve. You need enough to flavor two cups of water so the 2qt packets would be way too much.

  30. OK...you're making me want to try gummies again. My one attempt was pitiful. They wouldn't release from the mold easily, so I placed the tray in water to loosen up. This caused my gummies to start liquifying and I ended up with some melty, misshapen pieces of warm jello. Maybe I should spray my mold with baking spray and use more gelatin. I know I didn't use as much as your recipe calls for. Any thoughts?
    Reply

    • Definitely more gelatin. Is your mold silicone? Mine always release really easily and I never spray them.
