Healthy Snacks Anti-Inflammatory Turmeric Lemon Fruit Snacks
What could be better than being able to enjoy a healthy treat that tastes great and provides actual health benefits? That sounds like the ultimate win-win to me, and it’s exactly what you’ll get when you make these homemade anti-inflammatory turmeric lemon fruit snacks. This recipe makes deliciously tangy fruit snacks that have just the right amount of spice thanks to the turmeric powder. They really do offer up an incredibly unique taste, but more importantly, they’re a fantastic snacking option when it comes to relieving inflammation. And that’s great news when you stop to consider the fact there’s mounting evidence that chronic inflammation has been linked to the development of numerous types of diseases.

Thank you so much for this recipe! I have been making these gummies nonstop since I came across your recipe a few weeks ago. The gummies are tangy with a hint of spice from the turmeric and they’re incredibly delicious and easy to make! It’s the icing on the cake that they’re good for you, too, and help with inflammation.

Thanks Sara! I love that combination too. SO GOOD.
Is there another flavored gelatin you can use if you eat beef or pork??
If you’re looking for something vegan, I would go with Agar Agar instead of the animal-based gelatins. Sorry, not sure what the exact proportions would be though 🙁
It it Keto friendly with the honey? Can Stevia be just as effective.
Hey Lorene! These are definitely not keto as-is with the carb count because of the honey, however, I would think Stevia would work great to get the carbs much lower and make these keto-friendly 🙂 The only question I would have is if they would set the same as the honey version.
Hi, can Monk fruit be substituted for honey in the recipe. I know it will change the flavor a bit, but it will reduce the sugar grams.
Hey Lucinda 🙂 Monk fruit sweetener should work great. Definitely let me know how they turn out!
Please tell me where I can purchase these molds to make the jellied items ?
You can find molds in pretty much any shape either on Amazon or Etsy 🙂
Here are some great starter molds that I use and love:
Fruit Snack shapes (https://www.amazon.com/My-Fruit-Shack-DIY-Snacks/dp/B01GKTV9NG)
Gummy Bear mold (the one I use in this recipe) (https://www.amazon.com/Gummy-Bear-Candy-Molds-Silicone/dp/B0798HX8KR)
I have a few molds that I purchased at Ikea and a $ store. Very inexpensive. You shouldn’t have to buy them online, as shipping costs could be more than the actual item.
Ikea for $2, or I’ve even seen them in the $ store.
Love these, so easy to make and great to eat especially as they may help my Rheumatoid arthritis. Took them to our neighbourhood drinks this afternoon and everyone tried one, and loved them. They all want the recipe…and yes, it will have your details on when I give it to them.,
How many per serve is the nutrition based on, please?
These are so yummy! I wonder why its so hard to find these in stores. Do you know if something similar exists with turmeric? Its a bit of work and I dont always get to it ;/
