Tips on Using LĒVO Gummy Mix:
- Use MCT oil or Coconut Oil. MCT Oil is a favorite because it has no flavor or smell and won't take away from the flavor of the gummy mix.
- Stirring is key! One of the most common problems we find is that when not stirred enough, the oil can separate from the gummy mix. We stir for 5-10 minutes when initially adding the oil, and in between dispensing.
- If you gummy mix thickens while you are dispensing, you can reheat it at a low temperature.
- You don't need to add lecithin to the mix. While it doesn't hurt, it's also not necessary as LĒVO Gummy Mix already contains lecithin.
- If you notice foaming on your gummy mix while it cooks, this is caused by over-stirring the gelatin. It shouldn't impact the taste of your gummies and you can just skim it off.
- We find that 3-4 tablespoons of infused oil is the perfect amount, but we've added as much as 6 tablespoons without impacting the consistency of the gummies.
- Keep your gummies refrigerated to prevent them from oozing and help them keep their shape.
Want To Hack Your Gummies? Here Are Our Favorite DIYs:
- Combine flavors to make new ones. Peach-Raspberry or Cherry-Peach.
- Swap out the water required in the recipe for juice! Adding juice will add an extra sweetness and flavor to help mask any herb-flavor.
- Coat your gummies in sugar or cornstarch to keep them from sticking together.
- Don't want to make a full batch? Halve the recipe! Just use 3 tablespoons of water and 1-3 tablespoons of infused oil with the mix. LĒVO Gummy Mix bags are resealable.
- Use our Glitter & Shimmer Kit or Glittery Gummy Kit to add extra sparkle to your finished product.

FAQ
What is the best oil to use with the LĒVO Gummy Mix for optimal flavor?
For the best flavor and no interference with the gummy mix taste, we recommend using MCT oil. It’s odorless and flavorless, making it perfect for preserving the pure taste of your gummies.
How can I prevent the oil from separating from the gummy mix during preparation?
Stirring is crucial in the gummy-making process. Ensure to stir the mixture thoroughly for 5-10 minutes when adding the oil and occasionally during the dispensing process. This helps maintain a consistent mixture and prevents oil separation.
My gummy mix has started to thicken while dispensing. What should I do?
If your gummy mix begins to thicken too much during dispensing, you can gently reheat it at a low temperature to ease the process. This allows the gummy mix to remain fluid enough for easy dispensing without affecting the texture.
How should I store the finished gummies to maintain their best quality?
To keep your gummies from oozing and to help them retain their shape, store them in the refrigerator. For extended storage and freshness, keeping them chilled is essential. Optionally, you can coat the gummies in cornstarch or sugar before storing to prevent them from sticking together.

Hello, this is my 4th time, LOVE IT! Question? Can I use a syrup for shaved ice for taste? Instead of juice?

Will you be selling a vegan gummy mix soon? I’d love to buy these but allergic to red meat (mammalian meat allergy) so sadly I can’t eat these and have trouble finding vegan gummy recipes that work well with the coconut infused oil.

Received my Levo C last week and made my first infusion and batch of gummies last night! With 64 gummies, can I store them in the freezer for a longer shelf life? Should I leave them in the molds, or remove and roll them in a cornstarch sugar mixture? Any tips on the best way storage options? Thanks!

Hi Angela, we love helping customers with gummy questions! As long as you keep your gummies stored in the fridge, they will not get oily or soft. Some out our members prefer to keep their gummies in the freezer for a longer shelf life, especially in the summer. We learn a lot ourselves from our members in our private Facebook group, the LĒVO Love Club. You can join that group and search as well as post for more answers there!

I’ll be honest, I love Levo gummy mix flavor of Tropical Peach! It took me 4 tries before I nailed it down perfectly. Number 5 batch is perfect today! I’m a total rookie, never cooked like this before. I think everyone should know that it may take a few attempts, getting the right pan, heat distribution, stirring time and getting it into molds in correct semi-liquid condition. I upgraded on my third attempt to a, (DON’T LAUGH), Turkey Baster. I am able to fill it quickly and fill at least 8 gummy molds at once, making that last step go fast. Total time on stove top to gummy molds in fridge and kitchen clean-up for me is less than 15 minutes. Thanks Levo for that end product we made together, your ingredients and my stove and coconut oil.
