Benbits
BenBits are Dutch-style chewy gum candies, shaped as small glossy bites with bright fruit flavor and a springy pull, best set out as a playful after-dinner sweet rather than a plated entree.
π Recipe adapted from Wikidata (Dish)
Warm the gum base gently over a water bath until it softens but does not scorch.
Beat in glucose syrup, glycerin, citric acid, fruit flavoring, and a small amount of coloring.
Knead the warm mixture into powdered sugar until it becomes smooth, elastic, and no longer sticky.
Roll the gum into thin ropes on a cornstarch-dusted board and cut into bite-size pieces.
Dust lightly with cornstarch and let the BenBits firm up before storing in a covered jar.
