Steps

60min

1

Assemble ingredients.take 2 Tbsp gelatin powder in a bowl.add 1/2 cup hot water in bowl.
2

Let gelatin dissolve in water completely.keep aside for 10 min.
3

Take 1 cup sugar in pot.add 1/2 cup water & let sugar melt in water at low heat.do not rise flame.it will take quite some time but do it at low-medium flame only.
4

Stir with spatula or spoon.as sugar dissolves,bubbles will form & syrup gets thicken.
5

Add dissolved gelatin in syrup.stir as the syrup start getting thick.
6

Add vanila essance,orange juice, pinch of orange colour in syrup.stir to dissolve completely.
7

Take any mould of your choice.I have used silicone mould.place cling film inside mould & grease it with few drops of cooking oil.
8

Pour the syrup in mould.remove any airbubble.let it rest at room temperature for 10-15 min.then keep in fridge.
9

Grease working surface or counter top or any smooth tray with cooking oil & powdered sugar.
10

When the syrup is all set after 2-3 hours.take out mould.carefully pull up the clingfilmfrom mould.remove it with help of hands (grease your hands vd oil).
11

Place the jujubies at greased surface remove the clingfilm completely carefully.it is very sticky so work slowly & tactfully.
12

To cut jujubies,take sharp knife & dip in hot water each time before cutting.
13

Cut bite size pieces of jujubies (gummy candy)
14

Transfer the gummy candies to confectioner's sugar & coat nicely.(mix 1 Tbsp sugar to powdered sugar as well).This will reduce the stickness of candies as well & help to retain shape also.
15

As I make cookpad letters of jujubes first.then rest of the gummy candies. Cover all with cling film & keep in fridge for 1 hour.
16

Take out from fridge.dust some confectioner's sugar again.Orange Jujubes or Gummy candies are ready to serve.can be stored at room temperature in airtight jar.
17

Enjoy homemade Jujubes or Gummy candies, an Healthy clean treat for kids as well as for everyone.Happy cooking, Happy Sharing.
