# DIY Healthy Gummy Bears Blogger Undressed Skeleton Shows How to Make Healthy Gummy Candies By M | Published 2013-08-26 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gummy-candies References: [undressedskeleton.tumblr](http://undressedskeleton.tumblr.com/post/42764785751) Everyone loves to snack on a few gummy candies, and with food blogger Undressed Skeleton's latest DIY recipe, you can now make a healthy version of the famous [gummy bear candy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/katjes-wild-free) out of yummy fruits and natural juices. The trick to making [healthy gummy candies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neatsweets) is using the least amount of processed products as possible. In this recipe, everything is 100% natural and good for you. Rather than using gelatin and processed flavor chemicals, Undressed Skeleton shows how to make gummy candies with Stevia -- an [all-natural sweetener](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/honeygum) -- and raw fruits. Depending on what fruits and juices you like, blend them to a smooth consistency, strain the seeds and add the Stevia powder. Boil the syrup and leave it in a pan to cool -- like you would Jello. When the gummy candy has hardened, use a gummy bear mold and stamp out as many gummy bears as you can. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.9/10 - Popularity: 79% | Activity: 90% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Healthy DIY Snacks:** The rise of recipes like healthy gummy bears reflects the demand for accessible and healthy snack options that can be made at home. - **Natural Sweeteners:** The use of natural sweeteners like Stevia in DIY snacks reflects the growing trend of consumers seeking alternatives to traditional processed sugars. - **Customized Flavors:** The use of raw fruits in DIY snacks allows for consumers to customize and experiment with flavors that cannot be found in traditional processed snacks. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Food and Beverage:** The food and beverage industry has the opportunity to innovate by offering more healthy and customizable snack options that use natural ingredients. - **Consumer Goods:** As the trend towards healthy DIY snacks grows, companies in the consumer goods sector may see potential in creating innovative products that cater to this market. - **Health and Wellness:** The health and wellness industry has the opportunity to incorporate DIY snack recipes like healthy gummy bears into their offerings, catering to consumers who prioritize healthy, natural and organic products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Low-Sugar Plant-Powered Candies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yumy-candy.md) - [Mochi-Inspired Gummies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gelatin-free-gummies.md) - [High-Fiber Fruit Gummies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/naturelly-fruit-gummies.md) - [Low-Sugar Prebiotic Gummies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/prebiotic-gummies.md) - [Freeze-Dried Lickable Treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/funday-sweets.md) - [Honey-Sweetened Gummies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/honey-sweetened-gummies.md) - [Flavor-Enhanced Healthy Gumdrops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/healthy-gumdrops.md) - [Monk Fruit Gummy Candies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/healthy-hippo.md) - [Low-Sugar Plant-Based Gummies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/starburst-goodies.md)
