Flavoring

The easiest way to get flavored keto gummies is use electrolyte powder. I first heard of this idea years ago from Maria Emmerich. She uses electrolyte powder to make electrolytes gummies for her boys. I thought it was a cleaver way to get flavor without adding sugar or carbs.

Here are some keto electrolyte powders that you can use to make these gummies:

Gelatin

Gelatin is an essential ingredient to make keto gummies. It is what makes them wiggly and gel like. I like to get gelatin from grass-fed cows just to make sure I am getting high quality nutrition, but the unflavored packs from Knox will work too. And don’t worry about the beefy taste, the flavored electrolyte powders help to mask any flavor.

Another option is to for-go making your own jello and use a sugar-free jello mix.

Keto Gummy Worms: FAQS

Can I use flavored gelatin instead of unflavored gelatin?

While flavored gelatin can be used, it will alter the taste and may add carbs or sugars. Stick with unflavored gelatin to keep your gummy worms keto-friendly.

What can I use if I don't have erythritol?

If you don't have erythritol, you can substitute it with another keto-friendly sweetener like stevia or monk fruit. Just be sure to adjust the quantity according to the sweetness level of the alternative sweetener.

How should I store my keto gummy worms?

Store your keto gummy worms in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They should stay fresh for about 1-2 weeks.

Can I make these gummy worms without food coloring?

Absolutely! The food coloring is optional, so you can skip it if you prefer a more natural look or want to keep it simpler.

Do these gummy worms provide any nutritional benefits?

Yes! These gummy worms are a great way to get your electrolytes while enjoying a sweet treat. The unflavored gelatin is also a good source of protein.

  1. These turned out great. I loved how firm and chewy the texture was after just a short chill in the fridge. I added a berry-flavored electrolyte and the taste was surprisingly vibrant without being overly sweet. Will definitely make these again.

  2. We thought these were awesome! I am now expanding my gummy-making skills to try to get a stronger flavor, and possibly less salty from the LMNT. Thanks for the recipe!!

  3. Loves these. Yummy… I use citrus, orange and watermelon. I didn’t add any color. I like the mystery of what you’re gonna get next. I didn’t have a gummy worm molds, instead I used peanut butter cup molds, hearts any molds I had on hand. A treat when I have craving.

    Thank you,
