Oil Soluble Grape Flavoring

To make these Candy Shop Style Grape Gummies, start by gently heating grape juice and sugar until warm. Sprinkle gelatin over the juice to bloom, then stir until fully dissolved. Add grape extract and optional purple coloring for bold flavor and color. Pour the mixture into molds or a parchment-lined pan, then refrigerate until firm. Once set, remove from molds, dust with cornstarch or powdered sugar to prevent sticking, and enjoy chewy, flavorful grape gummies that taste just like candy shop classics.
