Elderberry Sea Moss Gummies Recipe with Bladderwrack
What you will need to make this Immunity Boosting Sea Moss Gummies Recipe:
Elderberry Ginger Infused Sea Moss Gel
The base of these gummies is sea moss gel infused with ginger and elderberry. Hopefully, you’ve had a chance to check out my previous post and learn how to make it. If not, you can check it out here: Elderberry Ginger Infused Sea Moss Gel | Easy Step-By-Step Recipe.
Bladderwrack
Bladderwrack is a type of seaweed packed with vitamins and minerals, offering a ton of incredible health benefits of its own, including increasing your thyroid health, aiding in digestion, and cleansing the body! When paired with sea moss, it enhances the effects of the sea moss! Here is the Bladderwrack I use: Cenalga Irish Organic Certified Bladderwrack Flakes
Cinnamon
Cinnamon has incredible medicinal properties, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, and antimicrobial properties that help to improve blood sugar, fight bad bacteria, reduce inflammation, and improve digestive health.
Cayenne Pepper
The active ingredient in cayenne pepper, capsaicin, helps to increase your metabolism and the absorption of the other ingredients used in these gummies. It is also packed with antioxidants like vitamin C, vitamin E, and beta carotene!
Maple Syrup
The Maple syrup helps to slightly sweeten the gummies. Not much is used, but it does help, especially to counterbalance the taste of ginger and cayenne. Make sure to use pure maple syrup, like this one. You can also use honey (for a non-vegan option).
Lemon Juice
The lemon juice acts as a preservative to maintain the longevity of the gummies. It also helps that lemon juice is filled with vitamin C and powerful antioxidants!
Essentials needed to make these sea moss gummies:
Gummy Bear Kit
I like to use a silicone gummy bear mold because the gummy bears easily set and pop right out once they are ready. There is no need to spray the silicone mold with oil spray or non-stick. Here is the gummy bear mold I used (it came with 3 molds and 3 liquid droppers): Silicone Gummy Bear Candy Mold BPA Free.
Agar-Agar
Agar-Agar is a vegan gelatin made from red algae. It has no flavor, no odor, no color, and is completely vegan, non-GMO, and gluten-free! It can be used to replace regular gelatin, which is typically made from animal body parts. Here is the Agar Agar Powder I used: Living Jin Agar Agar Powder
How to Use Agar-Agar Powder
In order to active agar-agar powder, it has to be heated. To activate it, simply:
- Grab a medium-sized saucepan and place it over medium-high heat.
- Add the liquid and agar-agar powder, making sure to stir it thoroughly to remove any chunks.
- Once the mixture starts to boil, reduce the heat and let it sit for 1 minute.
- Give it one final stir. (the entire process should take 3-5 minutes). Then, stir in the desired ingredient (sea moss gel mixture).
- Remove the mixture from the heat. Then, add the mixture to the mold.
PRO TIP: I really want to emphasize that once you add the sea moss gel to the agar-agar mixture, YOU MUST WORK QUICKLY to transfer the mixture into the molds. Agar-agar sets extremely fast and you want to avoid the mixture solidifying in the saucepan.
You can read more about how to use agar-agar here.
How to Make Elderberry Ginger Infused Sea Moss Gummies
Start with freshly made Elderberry Ginger Infused Sea Moss Gel. You can get the recipe here: Elderberry Ginger Infused Sea Moss Gel | Easy, Immunity Boosting Recipe.
For the best results, I highly recommend using freshly made (homemade) sea moss gel (not purchased sea moss gel). You can also use regular sea moss gel that has not been infused with elderberry and ginger.
Once you have your Sea Moss Gel ready, add the cinnamon, bladderwrack, cayenne pepper, maple syrup, and blend until the ingredients are fully incorporated. Measure 1 cup of the mixture and set it aside.
In a medium-sized saucepan, prepare the agar-agar (according to the instructions above). Once the agar-agar is ready, stir in the sea moss gel mixture until it is fully incorporated, about 1 minute.
Now it is time to move quickly. Remove the sea moss gel mixture from the heat. Using the liquid dropper, transfer the sea moss gel mixture into the gummy bear openings. 1 cup of the sea moss gel mixture should fill 3 (53 Cavities) gummy bear molds.
The gummy bears will immediately begin to set. Transfer the gummy bear mold into the fridge and allow them at least 1 hour to fully solidify.
After the gummies have set, remove the gummies from the mold and transfer them to an airtight mason jar.
Common Questions:
How much Bladderwrack to add to Sea Moss?
Once you make the sea moss gel in the blender, before transferring it into a mason jar, add bladderwrack powder and blend to mix it into the sea moss. Add 1 tbsp of bladderwrack powder per 8 ounces of sea moss gel.
How many Elderberry Sea Moss Gummies to take daily?
Adults can take 2-3 Sea Moss Gummies a day.
How to Store Elderberry Sea Moss Gummies?
Store your Sea Moss Gummies in an airtight mason jar in the fridge for up to 1 month.
Can you freeze Elderberry Sea Moss Gummies?
Yes, you can store your elderberry sea moss gummies in an airtight mason jar and keep them in the freezer for up to 3 months. Allow them to thaw at room temperature before consuming them.
Can you taste the Sea Moss in these gummies?
The elderberry, ginger, cinnamon, and lemon help to minimize the sea moss taste. However, because these gummies are made with minimal ingredients, you can slightly taste the sea moss. (I do not find it overpowering at all.) If you want to reduce the sea moss taste even further, try using honey instead of maple syrup.
Where do you buy Sea Moss?
It is very important to buy sea moss from a trusted and reputable supplier! Beware of fake sea moss, which tends to have a chlorine smell or appear flakey!
I purchase my Sea Moss from Donata Skinfood. Their products are always organic, natural, and vegan. Here is a link to their Organic Wildcrafted Sea Moss.
