10 Steps to Make Marijuana Gummies: From Infusing to Gummy Making

If you’re looking to embark on the journey of making marijuana gummies, you’ve come to the right place. Below, we’ve provided you with a step-by-step guide that’s sure to help you create delicious and potent marijuana-infused gummies.

Step 1: Gather supplies

Before you start making marijuana gummies, it’s important to make sure you have all the necessary supplies. These include gummy molds, a mixing bowl, measuring spoons/cups, a silicone spatula, a saucepan, and a candy thermometer. Of course, you’ll also need your cannabis oil or tincture.

Step 2: Measure out ingredients

Once you have all your supplies gathered, it’s time to start measuring out your ingredients. For marijuana gummies, you’ll need unflavored gelatin, flavored gelatin (of your choice), water, and corn syrup. Make sure you measure each ingredient accurately to get the perfect consistency.

Step 3: Heat and mix

In a saucepan, add the water, corn syrup, and both the unflavored and flavored gelatin and stir until well-combined. Turn the heat to medium-high and continue stirring as the mixture begins to heat up.

Step 4: Add cannabis oil

Once the mixture starts to boil, reduce the heat to low and add in your cannabis oil. Stir it in gently until it’s fully combined with the mixture.

Step 5: Monitor temperature

Keep a close eye on the candy thermometer and make sure the temperature of your mixture doesn’t exceed 165°F (74°C). Higher temperatures can damage the potency of the cannabis oil.

Step 6: Pour mixture into molds

Remove the saucepan from heat and, using a silicone spatula, pour the mixture into your gummy molds.

Step 7: Let cool and solidify

Let the molds cool and solidify for at least 2-3 hours. In some cases, it may take longer depending on the size of the mold.

Step 8: Remove gummies from mold

When your gummies are fully solidified, remove them from the mold by gently pressing the back of the mold. The gummies should pop out effortlessly.

Step 9: Dust gummies with sugar

If desired, you can give your marijuana gummies a bit of extra sweetness by dusting them with sugar.

Step 10: Store your gummies

Store your finished gummies in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Make sure they are kept out of reach of children and pets. Enjoy your homemade marijuana gummies in moderation!

What Do You Need to Make Marijuana Gummies?

Making marijuana gummies requires few basic ingredients and tools. Here is a list of things you need.

Choose Your Marijuana Strain

The quality of the gummies depends on the type and quality of the marijuana strain you use. If you’re looking for a potent high, use a high THC strain. On the other hand, if you want to experience the calming effect of cannabis without getting high, go for strains that have high CBD content. You can also mix strains to get custom effects.

Decarboxylate Your Cannabis Flowers

To activate the psychoactive compounds in cannabis, you need to decarboxylate (heat) the buds. Preheat your oven to 250°F. Spread the finely ground cannabis flowers onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the oven for 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally. Let it cool before using in the recipe.

Mix Sugar, Gelatin, and Liquid

In a saucepan, whisk together sugar and gelatin. Add the desired liquid (juice or water) and stir well. Heat the mixture on low flame until the sugar and gelatin dissolve completely. Increase the heat to medium and let the mixture simmer, stirring occasionally, until it reaches the temperature of 165°F. Use a candy thermometer to monitor the temperature.

Add Decarboxylated Cannabis to the Mixture

Take the saucepan off from the heat and stir in the decarboxylated cannabis into the mixture. Whisk it thoroughly to ensure that the cannabis is well incorporated. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the mixture to cool slightly.

Fill the Gummy Molds

Carefully pour the mixture into the gummy molds by using a dropper or a spoon. Don’t overfill the molds; leave some space on the top. Let the molds sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes or until the gummies are firm. Pop the gummies out of the molds and store them in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. Congratulations! You have made marijuana gummies.
