Hello, I am trying to make homemade candy gummies & am trying to make them using all natural ingredients. I've used pectin for thickening as well as a bit of tapioca starch to thicken it up & to create a gummy like texture - however, I've not been successful and instead have created a fruit chew. I've tried agar agar in the past before but have not mixed agar agar and pectin together - does anyone know if this would be a good combination? Or does anyone else have other recipes they could suggest? Any help would be appreciated! (Also forgot to mention that I am not in favour of using gelatin as I am a vegetarian). Thanks!
