Including good quality gelatin in the diet is a wonderful way to look after your connective tissue, skin, hair, nails, and gut lining. These Weis Bar Gummies are such a delicious and well-balanced snack that include protein from the gelatin, fat from the coconut and carbohydrates from the mango. If you want to learn more about the benefits of gelatin and collagen, read my blog post here.
When it comes to animal products, quality is key, and considering that gelatin is made from animals I have put together a list of brands that I recommend:

Ingredients
Coconut layer
1 cup coconut cream
1.5 Tbsp gelatin
1 cup water
Mango layer
1 cup of fresh mango (or frozen -defrosted)
1.5 Tbsp gelatin
1 cup water
Method
For coconut layer
Mix 1/4 cup of water and gelatin and set aside to bloom for a couple of minutes
Add coconut cream, remaining 3/4 cup of water and bloomed gelatin mixture to a small pot on low heat until the gelatin melts, mix to combine
Pour into silicon moulds and put in the fridge to set
Note: you can use any kind of mould or container here - I used silicon muffin moulds and then cut the gummies into 4 when they were ready
For mango layer
Mix 1/2 cup of water with gelatin and set aside to bloom
Add remaining 1/2 cup of water and mango to a blender and blend on high until smooth
Place the bloomed gelatin mixture into a small pot and melt down over low heat
Add the melted gelatin mixture to the blended mango and mix well
Once the coconut layer is set, pour the mango layer on top and place back into the fridge for at least 2 hours before removing from the moulds
Note: you can swap the mango for any other fruit that will puree e.g. berries, peaches
