  • Stove

  • Cooking Pot

  • Whisk or Fork

  • Gummy Worm Moulds

  • Dropper

  • Freezer

  • 1/2 Cup Cannabis-Infused Coconut Oil (Refined coconut oil, solid at room temperature)
  • 1/2 Cup Cold Water (Can be substituted with juice)
  • 85 Grams Packet of Flavoured Gelatine *One Jell-o Pack
  • 2 Tablespoons Plain Unflavoured Gelatine (20 Grams)
  • 1 tsp citric acid
  • 1 cup Sugar (optional)
  • Turn your stove on low heat. In a pot, add the water and the cannabis-infused coconut oil.

  • Continue stirring the mixture until it has a consistent texture and the coconut oil has completely melted. Now, add in the flavoured gelatin, unflavoured gelatin, and citric acid while continuing to stir throughout this process.

  • Whisk extensively on low heat for around 10-15 minutes or until the gelatine is completely dissolved. Make sure it does not come to a boil. You also need to make sure that all the ingredients are thoroughly combined. You have to continuously stir this mixture until it's done. If it starts to thicken it's most likely done.

  • While leaving the pot on the element, start filling up the gummy worm moulds with a dropper (a dropper is a mini turkey baster that comes with most gummy bear moulds). Make sure to move quickly. If your liquid starts to harden, it's because the mixture has started to cool. It's critical that you move fast otherwise the mixture will be hard to work with. (The secret to making great infused gummy worms is pouring the mixture into the moulds as fast as possible.)

  • Put the gummy wrom moulds into the freezer for 20-25 minutes. (Pro tip:  lift the mould 2 inches off the table and drop it. This will let the mixture fill any air pockets.)

  • (optional) After the gummy worms are done cooling, roll them in sugar. This helps to cover up the taste of cannabis.

  • Bon Appetite!

If you’d like, you can substitute water with juice. We reccomend using lemonade and lime flavoured gelatin.
