“Gummipple Lab” for making realistic gummy bears in the mood for experimentation.
The “Gumipple Lab” series, a kit that allows users to make realistic and unique gummy bears at home, is a hot topic of conversation among adults as well.
Gummies are made by mixing colored beverages such as juice and syrup with gelatin, pouring the mixture into a special mold, and combining the hardened parts to complete the product. The result looks like miniature food samples, and even adults seem to be getting serious about it.
You can also cut potatoes and carrots made from gummy bears with a knife and mix them in a pot, or pour juice into a gummy cup, and enjoy cooking with your children.
The lineup also includes four other types of gummy products: “Fishing Gummies” in the shape of sea creatures, “Dokkitto Station” with realistic insects and reptiles, and “Kirakitto Station” with glass shoes and cosmetics.
The instruction manual that comes with each one includes a “Gummy Color Chart” that shows how to make gummy liquid in eight different colors. The tools included with the product are based on the motif of test tubes and other objects, making it fun to make the products in an experimental atmosphere.
