The retail cost of buying cannabis gummies for recreational and medical consumers adds up considerably over time. Those little packages of joy burn a hole in the wallet or purse after a few trips to the plug or dispensary. Savvy consumers save considerable loot by not buying gummies and making their own right at home instead.
DIY kings and queens have their own methods to the madness when it comes to all things homemade edibles, but for anyone looking for a little push in the right direction, here are some great gummy kits and gummy-making accessories for getting started.
Why Make Your Own Gummies Instead of Buying Them?
Cannabis gummies in recreational and medical states range from affordable to unaffordable pretty quickly. Residents who don’t live in either type of region also find the black and gray market often unaffordable for regular gummy enjoyment. However, sometimes the obvious solution always stares right back at you—make your own gummies!
DIY Gummy Kits Range from Basic to Automated
Consumers looking for more gummies while not breaking the bank should seriously consider making their own. The cost of a gummy-making kit can range anywhere from $10 or less, all the way to a few hundred dollars for automated machines that do the whole process from start to finish. The art of creating your own gummies isn’t too complicated, and materials in the kits usually just include molds, gelatin packets, droppers, and funnels. You can easily refrigerate or freeze gummies for long-term storage.
Kitchen equipment and stovetop access are also crucial; however, cannabis oil is the star attraction and ingredient necessary to elevate your gummies to ‘magical’ status. Consumers in legal and medical states have access to retail cannabis oil and tincture; however, many simply make their own to save considerable money. DIY cannabis oil is as potent as the consumer wants it; however, sometimes it’s hard to keep track of the true cannabinoid levels without the convenience of lab analysis.
Consistency & Taste Make A Good Gummy Kit Recipe
DIY gummy kits are a hit with consumers for a multitude of reasons, but another big reason is the consistency of each batch. Guesswork and probability go out the window with streamlined instructions and materials provided for at-home chefs.
There’s a lot of gummy recipes online—ranging from bad to good—but companies hawking these kits know what they’re doing, while consumers trust the recipe to be consistent and tasty! Online reviews ultimately give the best insight into quality and consistency per brand, so always check them out before making a purchase.
Zen Zingers DIY Gummy Kit
Flavor is sometimes negligible when it comes to gummies—some companies just don’t put enough effort into the taste appeal aspect of the gelatin mixes contained in the kit. Zen Zingers gummy kits answer the call for better-tasting gummies in their easy-to-mix recipe. Six different naturally flavored options deliver big on candy-like appeal, making it really hard to eat just one!
Flavors include:
Cherry Bomb
Cosmic Cola
Mega Mango
Pandemic Peach
Punchy Pink Grapefruit
Righteous Raspberry
Source: Zen Zingers
DIY newbies find Zen Zingers excellent for their flavor, but above all, they value simplicity the most. The recipe is as simple as adding the gelatin packet to a slow boil in a saucepan for several minutes, then adding the canna oil. Pour the final mixture into the molds included with each kit, let them cure for 24 hours, then it’s time to enjoy gummies your way.
Authentic German Gummy Bears DIY Kit
We’ve all heard German gummy bears are the best in the world, but why? It’s because German candy manufacturers abandon corn syrup and artificial sweeteners in favor of natural fruit-based flavors and cane sugar. Some consumers don’t notice a difference, while others will never go back to non-German gummies ever again.

Taste of Germany, a German food product distributor in the U.S., knows the delicious reputation German gummies and gelatin have all around the world, so they decided to get into the cannabis gummy game too! Now DIY edible chefs have the world’s best gummy ingredients at their disposal with the “Make Your Own Weed Gummies Kit” (actual name) to create the best cannabis gummies in the universe!
Taste of Germany’s kits offer 3 flavor options (Lemon, Raspberry, Apple) and, just like Zen Zingers, a mold is included with the kits. Cannabis oil is again necessary to make these authentic German gummies; lederhosen is not.
Consumers seeking ultimate precision and an all-in-one automated device should look no further than the LEVO Gummy Candy Maker. LEVO features kits with its mixer that include delicious gelatin packets, molds, and deluxe accessories for pricier options. This affordable device’s gummy-making functionality clearly surpasses anything on the market. The days of DIY gummy chefs standing over a hot stove stirring and hoping they didn’t overcook the gelatin again are over—this savant does it all for you.
The Ultimate Gummy Making Tool
The same company that revolutionized all-in-one decarboxylation and infusion devices makes the LEVO Gummy Candy Mixer. LEVO products often rank as the best available in the DIY edible game, and this device is no different. Its portable, whisper-quiet operation works anywhere with an outlet. Home chefs need only insert their gelatin gummy mixes and water for the first cycle. The next cycle infuses with as much cannabis oil as they’d like to add to the gelatin mix.
This device is especially great for anyone who doesn’t feel confident in their ability to make gummies, has failed miserably with separated gelatin and oil before, or has a little bit of disposable cash. It’s definitely not a necessary tool for all DIY edible chefs—a stovetop ALWAYS works just fine—but it is optimized and designed to be the ultimate tool for making gummies. Even small features, such as a pourable lid and the device’s ability to keep the infused gelatin in motion while pouring it into molds, are genius and earn instant appreciation from anyone who has ever had to pour before.
Magical Gummy Maker Kits
The Magical Butter machine redefined cannabis infusion well over a decade ago by optimizing the experience and confining it to an automated mixer with precise control. They continue redefining tedious processes that once shortchanged potency, taste, and consumers’ precious time. This go-around, the Magical Butter team innovated again with their Magical Gummy Maker Kit—another all-in-one gummy maker kit similar to the LEVO but with some differences.
Easy Automation & Even Easier Dispensing
This device features an automatic gummy cycle as well as manual controls, while an internal stainless steel mixer maintains consistency from start to finish. The Magical Gummy Maker’s big appeal is its simplicity and optimization of the gummy-making process; however, the option to just press a button for dispensing the gummies directly into molds is frankly, bad-ass. A silicone button guides the finished, infused gummy mixture through a silicone nozzle for the ultimate convenience of control. The company’s all-in-one deluxe Gummy Kit includes the mixing device as well as gelatin, molds, measuring cups, and spatulas.

Custom Silicone Gummy Molds
Pouring your gummy creations into silicone, non-stick molds shapes them into how you want the final product to look. Many gummy kits offer pretty basic shapes as their mold options, whereas others provide some fun weed leaves or smiley faces for you to pour into.
Anyone looking to get creative with their gummies is in luck—some companies let you design your very own mold shapes. Companies like PJBold and Boldmaker take DIY gummies to the next level by bringing your visions to life. Imagine wowing your friends and family with potent German gelatin-made gummies in the shape of David Hasselhoff’s head—the sky’s the limit!
DIY Gummy Kits Help Consumers In Numerous Ways
Consumers avoiding high prices and inconsistent quality from the dispensary or plug need to get into the DIY gummy game. You save plenty of money and make a lot of gummies, yes, but the convenience of having an all-in-one kit streamlining the very sticky and often burdensome process of making them is very comforting.
Simple stovetop kits supply gelatin and molds with easy instructions, while automated mixers deliver one-button functionality and maximum consistency. Consumers can rest assured, no matter their price range or preferences, DIY Gummy Kits are a worthy pick-up.
