These keto gummies are a low carb and sugar free take on classic gummy bears! Made with 3 ingredients, they take minutes to make and are seriously addictive! 1 grams net carbs per serving.
The Best Keto Gummies
Sugar free gummy bears may be easy to find at grocery stores and online, but making them yourself is even easier.
With just three ingredients, you can make homemade gummy bears that are soft, jelly-like, and pleasantly chewy. And there are tons of flavors you can choose from!
Like my homemade hard candy and homemade marshmallows, they have zero sugar and zero carbs.
They take minutes to make and you can use other shapes too: gummy worms, snakes, and more.
Plus, these homemade gummies are so much cheaper than store bought and don’t leave you feeling bloated or gassy. Have you read the infamous reviews of the Haribo sugar free gummy bears? Yeah, these are nothing like that at all.
Oh, and each serving has under 1 gram of carbs.
What are gummies made of?
So, as I mentioned, this recipe uses easy to find ingredients that you probably have in your pantry right now!
Here is everything you’ll need:
- Sugar free jello mix. Use your favorite flavors. I used raspberry, lime, orange, and pineapple.
- Unflavored gelatin. Thickens the gummy bears and keeps them firm at room temperature.
- Water. Boiling hot water.
How to make keto gummies
The process for this sugar free gummy bear recipe is an easy one, and the hard part is waiting for the gummies to firm up.
So with that, get out the ingredients and make keto gummy bears!
Step 1- Make the gummy mix
Start by adding the jello mix and gelatin into a large mixing bowl and mix well. Next, add the boiling water and whisk very well, until the jello mix/gelatin has dissolved. Let the mixture cool for around 10 minutes.
Step 2- Pipe into molds
Now, use a liquid dropper (pipette) to drop the gummy bear mixture into the gummy molds. If using multiple flavors, repeat the process until all the molds are filled.
Step 3- Let the gummies set
Finally, place the filled candy molds in the refrigerator for 30-40 minutes, to firm up. Once the gummies are firm, pop them out of the candy molds and enjoy.
Tips to make the best sugar free gummies
- Place all your filled candy molds onto a baking sheet for easy transfer and removal of the gummy candy from the refrigerator.
- If you’d like to make gummy worms, transfer the mixture into a loaf pan and use a pizza cutter to slice long, thin ‘worms’ once set.
- For sour gummy worms, add 1-2 tablespoons of a sugar free powdered drink mixture, like Koolaid.
Storage info
Wondering what is the best way to store gummies? You can either refrigerate them or freeze them. Here is how:
- To store: Even though these are gummy candy, they should be stored in the refrigerator, in a sealed container. They will keep well for up to 1 month.
- To freeze: Place the gummies in a shallow container or ziplock bag and store them in the freezer for up to 6 months.

I couldn’t wait to make these and only had 1 box of sf jello and 1 package of knox jello –
It worked perfectly! Too perfectly! I ate them all in one sitting!
Such a good low carb and low sugar snack!
Can’t stop eating them LOL Fantastic and so quick and easy! The grandkids will love these. Thanks for a great recipe.
I made these and they are delicious!! My lime ones are turning out a little grainy, like they haven’t been mixed well but it was completely dissolved when I let it cool and put into the molds. Do you have any suggestions or has this happened to you? All the other flavors I’ve tried work great!
These are SO great!! I was surprised at how good they came out!! I used sugar-free raspberry jello & to make them sour I added blue raspberry lemonade kool-aid powder. Definitely satisfied my sour gummy cravings. I am about to make more& try different flavor combos!
Love it! Was wondering if you ever tried making it with diet sodas / and had any tips?
This was fantastic!!! I bought some gummy bear, frog, monkey molds from JoAnn Fabrics and I added sugar free lemon aid/crystal light to it and the ones with the crystal light were my favorite! Thx for such a unique & easy recipe!
Hi everyone. I’m in Australia. Thank you for this recipe. I don’t use an individual shaped mould. I just pour it into a mini loaf pan and then cut it up with a knife. One sachet of jelly (Aeroplane Jelly Lite contains 2 sachets; there are 9 flavours available) with 14gms gelatine plus 1/3 cup water will make 16 pieces. I weigh the gelatine and add the sachet, then put hot water into a glass jug and sprinkle, stir, sprinkle, stir the powder into the water so it doesn’t go gluggy, and then put it in the microwave for about 35-40 seconds on high until it starts to bubble around the edge. I then stir with the same spoon I used at the start (it will have some mix stuck on it) until it is all mixed up well and then pour into one section of the mini loaf pan. The pan will need to be on a solid flat surface. I use a plastic bread board which is about the same size as the loaf pan.
Hi there,These look soooo fab!! Is there an alternatvie to gelatin for vegetarians please?
Not that I’ve tried 🙂
Maybe xanthan gum? I do not know how much you would use, but it is used in vegan products as a stabilizer and thickner.
Try agar-agar? That’s what’s used in a lot of Asian jelly-like foods, made from seaweed.
How much citric acid would you add to make them sour?
