How cute are these triple berry keto gummy bears? Not only are they super fun, they’re also really healthy! In fact, they are probably one of the healthiest sweets ever. The recipe is low carb and Paleo and what’s more, these fruity homemade gummies are sweetener free, too!
What's your Haribo memory? Whether you used to share your sweeties with your best friend or whether you rather enjoyed them by yourself - gummy bears and gummies in all shapes and forms are part of the fabric of our childhood.
There have been sugar free versions on the market, which have caused people all kinds of gastro problems. The reason were artificial sweeteners that our systems just do not tolerate. Your body will always let you know what's good for you - and what isn't...
Time for triple berry homemade gummies, guys!
These fruity little guys are a wonderful combination of fresh berry juice and grass-fed gelatin.
Strawberries, raspberries and blackberries are all low in carbs and keto-friendly.
Good quality grass-fed gelatin has LOADS of healthful properties thanks to the collagen it contains, from improving your gut health to radiant skin. Do not confuse grass-fed gelatin with Jello, which is full of artificial additives. Read more about the benefits of gelatin here.
How to make keto gummy bears - step by step:Â
1.) Place the gelatin into a bowl. Add the water, stir and allow to bloom.
2.) Mix strawberries, raspberries and blackberries in a high speed blender until smooth.
Tip: If you don't have a high speed blender, you could use the attachment of a stick blender. You may have to do this in several batches, but this will yield the same smooth result.
3.) Pour the berry mix onto a muslin cloth which you have placed over a bowl.
Muslin cloths are quite useful in the kitchen, I have this one. I also use it to squeeze liquid out of steamed cauliflower and courgette when I make fritters and to make labneh (yoghurt cheese) - yum.
4.) Gather the cloth together and squeeeeze all the berry juice out. Discard the pith.
5.) Warm half the juice in a pan on a low heat, until it starts to bubble. Add the gelatin and stir until combined.
6.) Pour the mix into a jug and add the second half of the berry juice. Stir.
The reason for heating only half the juice is that it loses its vibrant colour when warmed. Can you see how the cold juice in the middle of the jug is much redder than the rest? We want our keto gummies to be as colourful as possible!
7.) Using a pipette, fill each cavity with the berry-gelatin mix. Then cool in the fridge for 2 hours until set.
8. Release your fruity homemade gummy bears from the mould and enjoy!
Tips and recipe variations for yummy Keto gummy bears
Personally, I think these gummies don't need any extra sweetness. They don't taste like Haribo, they're so much better. They're fruity, slightly zingy and just little bursts of goodness.
If you have more of a sweet tooth than me, do feel free to add 1-2 teaspoon of powdered erythritol or 4 drops of liquid stevia when you add the gelatin to the warmed berry juice.
The ripeness and quality of your berries will have a huge impact on how fruity and how sweet the end result is. Fresh berries will always taste better than previously frozen berries.
Get creative and experiment with ratio of different berries too. It changes the colour. For example, if you want more of a purple gummy bear, add more blackberries and less raspberries. Just be mindful this will alter the net carb content slightly.
You can also add other pairing flavours like lemon, lime or vanilla and cinnamon. One benefit of adding lemon or lime is that the acid in either will extend the shelf life of your gummies - it prevents the growth of bacteria.

Hi Katrin,
Hope you can help me.
I tried to make these gummy bears last weekend. I bought the Collagen Gelatin in your link. When I added the water it looked really watery. Nothing bloomed :/ . I followed all your instructions, but at the end the gummy bears were still juice. After leaving overnight too. I really would like to make these. I'm not sure what I did wrong?
Katrin Nürnberger
Hi Rebecca, how disappointing! I'm wondering if you used too much water? Here's an article about blooming gelatin https://bakingbites.com/2016/07/how-to-bloom-gelatin/
Roberta Henches
Is it possible for you to put US links on your site as well? I'd like you to get credit for any links that I use. Your website is a gift! You are amazing! Thank you for all the work you do to keep us on our Keto plan!
Katrin Nürnberger
So glad you like the website! Most of my links are actually pointing to Amazon US, because that's where the majority of my readers live. you must have found one of the few ones to Amazon UK! Thanks for your thoughtfulness 🙂
Mari Chapa
What if you can’t get fresh berries? Is sugar free Jello powder an option?
Katrin Nürnberger
I would use frozen instead, if you can get hold of them. Using sugar free Jello would also work I guess. Or fruit tea.

Hi
I tried this out but the berries were more pith than juice, so i added a little water. And then I didnt have enough gelatine.. 6 tablespoons equals 24 sheets of gelatine, i used 12. My jelly babies stuck to the mould and were a little jellyish rather than gummy. Is this because I didnt use enough gelatine?
Katrin Nürnberger
Yes, it sounds like that you did not use enough gelatine to firm up the juice properly. What a shame! I hope you'll try again. 🙂
Shereen
Hi Katrin,
I'm researching options for vegan gelatin or a substitute close to this. Do you have any suggestions for vegan substitutes for this recipe?
Katrin
Hi Shereen,
I don't have any experience with vegan gelatine. I once bought something called vege-gel by Dr Oetker, but it's a while and I never used it.
Gatlin
You can often swap out the gelatin with Agar powder (very nutritious too!) and I use this for the ratio:
To set 500ml of liquid:
4 sheets gelatine =1 envelope powdered gelatine =1 tbsp.granulated gelatine =1 tsp. agar powder= 2g Agar
3:1 powdered gelatin to powdered agar conversion
Katrin Nürnberger
Thank you for this! So interesting
Gaia
Do you still add the water if using Agar or would you add it straight to the berry juice?
Zak
Why is it only good for 3 days in the fridge?
Katrin
Hi Zak, you can probably keep them for longer but that’s how long mine lasted 🙂
Joy
Just curious if you know the net carbs per serving (which you have based as 10 gummies)?
The recipe looks great, I can't wait to try this. I've been on keto for two months now and I've been craving a gummy like candy - this may do the trick.
Thanks.
Katrin
One portion is 1 g net carbs- the total carbs minus the fibre 🙂
Petra Lauko
Katrin, where do you get your teddy bear moulds feom? I definitely want to try these. Thanks
Katrin
You can get them on amazon! Here is the link
Leanne
Oo, these look amazing, I'll have to give them a try! I love gummies but I find them hard to digest sometimes, so I've been itching to make some of my own. This recipe looks fantastic 🙂
Katrin
Great! Let me know how you like them once you've made the recipe 🙂
Kristen Todd
I’ve tried something similar before and the texture came out very much like Jello and not more firm like actual gummies. What is the texture like on these?
Katrin
I think they are just like gummies, quite firm!
Alecia
Question, bloom, what is this?
I added the gelatin to the berry and water mix on the stove but found it clumps up, I was thinking on the next batch that I use a mixer. Advice?
Great idea on color, I will have to try. I dont add much sugar either if any. I do leave the fiber in tough-healthier that way.
Katrin
You dissolve the gelatin in water for a few minutes. This is the "blooming" step described in the recipe. It ensures that the gelatin does not clump. I hope this helps!!
Sarah
Hi! I am
Definitely making these! Problem is, my
Mold is small and only makes about 24 at a time, and I only have 1. Is it possible to reheat the liquid to make it pourable again after the first ones are molded? Otherwise I’ll just have to use a different mold. Thanks!!
Katrin Nürnberger
I have not tried it, but it should be no problem to reheat the mix.
Kate
Can these be frozen?
Katrin
I don't recommend it - I haven't tried with this recipe, but from previous experience it changes the texture.
Daizy Virk Pace
Hi,
any tried making this recipe with Knox gelatin? it is easily available in Walmart? Can i use frozen berries?
Katrin
Hi, any gelatin works, though there are differences in quality - that's why the recipe states grass-fed gelatin. As for the berries, I recommend you use fresh berries if you can. They just taste better.
Keri
How cute!! Do you remember how much juice you got out of the berries all together?
Katrin
I'm sorry Keri, I didn't weigh the juice 🙂 - just stick to ripe, fresh berries and the measurements given and you should be fine
Lori
These look great! If I put them in a jar or container do they stick together?
Katrin
If you keep them cool they won't stick 🙂
