HOW TO MAKE THC GUMMIES UK

Basic THC gummy ingredients

For about 30 small gummies:

  • ½ cup cannabis‑infused coconut oil (your chosen potency)​

  • ½ cup water or fruit juice

  • 1 tablespoon sunflower or soy lecithin (helps oil mix in and set better)

  • 1 packet flavored gelatin (85 g / 3 oz, e.g., Jell‑O)

  • 2–3 tablespoons unflavored gelatin (for a firmer, “store‑bought” texture)

  • ½–1 teaspoon citric acid (for tart “candy” taste, optional)​

  • Silicone gummy molds + dropper or small jug

You must already have decarbed, infused oil or tincture; making that is its own process.


Step 1 – Gently heat liquids

  1. Add ½ cup water/juice, ½ cup cannabis oil, and lecithin to a small saucepan.

  2. Put on low heat and stir until the oil melts and the mixture looks uniform (no large oil layer floating).

  3. Do not let it boil; keep it just warm.


Step 2 – Add gelatin and dissolve

  1. Sprinkle in the flavored gelatin and unflavored gelatin while whisking constantly to avoid clumps.

  2. Keep on low heat 10–15 minutes, stirring all the time, until everything is fully dissolved and smooth; don’t boil it.

  3. Skim off any white foam on top for a clearer gummy, if you want.​

  4. Stir in citric acid at the end if you like them sour.​


Step 3 – Fill the molds

  1. Place silicone molds on a tray so they are easy to move.

  2. Remove pan from heat; work fairly quickly so the mix doesn’t set.

  3. Use a dropper or small jug to fill each cavity, then gently tap the tray to release air bubbles.


Step 4 – Set and dry

  1. Put molds in the fridge or freezer until the gummies are firm (about 20–30 minutes).

  2. Pop gummies out and, for best texture and shelf life, let them air‑dry on parchment for 12–24 hours so the surface is less sticky.

  3. Store in an airtight container, ideally in the fridge or a cool cupboard.​


How to estimate dose per gummy

  1. Work out total THC in your oil. Example: if your oil has 14 mg THC per teaspoon and you use 24 teaspoons (½ cup), the batch has 336 mg THC.​

  2. Divide total mg THC by how many gummies you made. Example: 336 mg divided by 30 gummies ≈ 11 mg per gummy.​​

  3. If you want ~5 mg per gummy, either use weaker oil or fill more cavities (e.g., 60 small gummies from the same batch).
