A naturally fruity snack inspired by the stars of Matariki. Made with real apple juice and ViBERi Blackcurrant Powder, these wholesome gummies are naturally sweetened, easy to make, and perfect for lunchboxes, afternoon snacks or enjoying straight from the freezer.

Ingredients

1 cup organic apple juice
2–3 Tbsp ViBERi Blackcurrant Powder
2–3 Tbsp grass-fed gelatin (or agar agar for a plant-based option)
1–2 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional)
Splash of fresh lemon juice

Method

1. Pour the apple juice into a small saucepan and gently warm over a low heat until just warm. Do not allow it to simmer or boil.

2. Remove the saucepan from the heat and whisk in the ViBERi Blackcurrant Powder until smooth and fully combined.

3. Add the lemon juice and honey or maple syrup (if using), then gradually sprinkle in the gelatin while whisking continuously until completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth.

4. Carefully pour the mixture into silicone star moulds and refrigerate for 1–2 hours, or until completely set.

Gently remove the gummies from the moulds and enjoy. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or keep them in the freezer for a refreshing snack whenever you need one.
