Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Bloom 1 tbsp gelatin powder in 2 tbsp cold water for 5 minutes. In a saucepan, heat 1/4 cup agave nectar and 1/2 cup raspberry puree over medium-low heat until simmering, then whisk in bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved.
  2. Step 2: Remove from heat and stir in 1 tsp lemon zest. Pour the mixture into a lined silicone mold, filling each compartment about 3/4 full. Refrigerate for 45 minutes until set.
  3. Step 3: In a separate bowl, mix 2 tbsp cocoa powder with 1 tbsp melted coconut oil. Once the gummy base is set, spoon the chocolate mixture into the center of each mold, swirling gently to create a marbled effect. Refrigerate for 2 more hours until firm.
