ABSTRACT
Gummies with many vitamins are a common nutritional
supplement since they are tasty and convenient. The purpose of
this study was to improve the nutritional value and flavor profile
of multivitamin gummies by adding natural extracts from
pineapple, orange, and lemon. Fruit extracts, sweeteners,
vitamins, and agar were used in the formulation of the gummies.
Taste and nutritional value of each fruit extract were tested at
different concentrations. The combination of pineapple, orange,
and lemon in the finished formulation produced well-balanced
flavors that made for a satisfying sensory experience. The
gummies were also enhanced with vital vitamins, such as vitamin
B12, vitamin D, and vitamin C, which support general health and
wellness. The created multivitamin gummies satisfy customers
looking for both nutrition and enjoyment by providing a tasty and
practical approach to enhance daily nutrition consumption.

CONCLUSION
The study's findings demonstrated the antioxidant activity of the gummies
made with lemon, pineapple, and orange juice as well as honey as a
sweetener. The gummies were also safe from a microbiological perspective,
with respect to moisture content and mesophilic aerobic population values.
While the created goods varied depending on the variety, they all had similar
colour and texture, with the orange formulation having stronger resilience but
reduced hardness and springiness.
Gummies with many vitamins are a fun and easy way to enhance daily
nutrition and promote general health and wellbeing. These candies can help
fill in nutrient shortages and support vitality since they contain carefully
chosen vitamins, minerals, and other substances. To guarantee safety and
efficacy, the formulation process carefully considers ingredients, doses, tastes,
and regulatory compliance. Multivitamin gummies can be a useful supplement
to a healthy diet and lifestyle to support optimal health for people of all ages.
