The Gummy Challenge

What’s Your Favorite Flavor??

Gummies, they seem so simple, so why are there so many bad ones out there?? The texture, the flavors, and the ingredients used could really all be made better. So in early 2019 I set out to make a better gummy.

Creating the gummy recipe was a labor of love, and lasted at least a full year. I started with a pretty basic recipe I found somewhere online. It was just ok, but it was also a good starting point. There was a lot of trial and error, and sticky messes involved, several trips to dispensaries to try the new gummies they were selling. I was looking for something to work towards, a goal, but I’ve never eaten a THC gummy from Florida that has good texture. Most seem gritty, and remind me of those little jelly packs from restaurants – but only after its been opened and dried out. To me there was no chew and the flavors were mediocre at best.

With so many different products available, why choose gummies?

Gummies are small, easy to digest, and relatively low in calories (they’re small). Gummies are very portable (again, they’re small), just keep in mind that they melt at 95℉ and you are 98.6℉, so don’t keep them in your pocket. The gummies can be chewed and swallowed, or placed inside of the cheek or under the tongue and sucked on. Doing this will actually get the thc into the body faster (buccal and sublingual), this is also a great way to help a sore throat.
