Gummy customization experts at レッチョ・キャンディ reveal the 2026 manufacturing process: from 3D mold design and R&D sampling to large-scale candy mass production.
A Complete Guide For Gummy Customization
In the highly competitive global confectionery market of 2026, brands and large supermarkets are no longer satisfied with standardized products. Gummy customization has become a core strategy for companies to establish differentiated competitiveness in Southeast Asia and the Japanese and Korean markets.
As a modern soft candy manufacturer with over 30 years of experience, レッチョ・キャンディ provides an in-depth breakdown of the complete B2B customization chain from inspiration to shelf.
Step 1: Conceptualization and 3D Mold Development (The Blueprint)
The first step in gummy customization is not mixing ingredients, but defining the shape.
- 500+ Existing Molds Library: We have a vast existing mold asset (heart-shaped, bear-shaped, fruit-shaped, etc.), which can significantly shorten the time to market for new products.
- Custom 3D Modeling: If you require a unique IP character or specific geometric shape, our R&D team will quickly produce mold samples using 3D printing technology.
- Technical Considerations: We will assess the integrity of the shape during the demolding process to ensure that it maintains exquisite edges even under high-efficiency production.
Step 2: Formula Development and Flavor Blending (R&D Lab)
A good appearance needs a good soul. The texture, transparency, and stability of the gummies are key to B2B sourcing.
- Base Selection: For the health-conscious Japanese and Korean markets, we offer a ペクチン plant-based solution; for classic flavors, we offer a high-purity gelatin solution.
- Functional Additives: The trend for 2026 is “Candy+”. We support the addition of vitamins, probiotics, or melt-resistant agents specific to the Southeast Asian climate to the formula.
- Color and Flavor: Only natural colorings that meet international food safety standards are used to recreate authentic fruit flavors.
Step 3: Rapid Sampling & Testing
Sample testing is crucial before mass production of gummy customization.
- Small Sample Testing: Our laboratory can produce samples quickly for your sensory evaluation.
- Shelf Life Simulation: Simulating tropical and temperate climates ensures the product does not stick or fade during long-distance sea transport and shelf storage.
Step 4: Modernized Mass Production
Once samples are approved, LeChao’s fully automated production line will be operational.
- High-Precision Filling: Automated equipment ensures the weight error of each gummy is controlled within 1%.
- Clean Environment: The production workshop strictly adheres to HACCP and BRC international standards, ensuring the safety and compliance of every batch of products.
Step 5: Customized Packaging & Logistics
- Diverse Packaging: From family-sized stand-up pouches and supermarket bulk to elegant gift boxes, we support comprehensive private label customization.
- Compliant Labeling: We assist in optimizing packaging ingredient lists and nutrition labels for export destinations (such as Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asia).
