DAT Supply supplies private-label food supplement gummies alongside sachets, oral strips and jelly sticks. You choose the format.

Gummy bases

Pectin — the gummy base

DAT Supply gummies are pectin-based. The properties below explain the science behind that, shown against a gelatin base for reference — gelatin is not a base DAT Supply supplies for gummies.

Gummy base comparison. Formula-level properties, shown for reference — DAT Supply gummies use a pectin matrix only.

Shape, flavour, colour

The parts of a gummy your customer actually notices

Everything a shopper reacts to on shelf — the shape in the jar, the first bite, the colour, the sweetness — is a formula-level decision, agreed in the specification and then judged on physical samples before production. None of it is settled from a website.

Shape

Colour

Formulation

What a gummy can carry — and when to use another format

The honest version. A gummy is a delivery format with real limits, and a manufacturer that runs several formats has no reason to talk you into the wrong one.

Active load per serving
Lower than a powder sachetA gummy carries less active per serving than a powder format. Where the active load is the point, the same stack is usually built as a sachet instead — DAT Supply offers both.
Heat-sensitive actives
Reviewed against the gummy processAssessed during the brief, before development starts, so an unsuitable active is caught before it is scoped.
Base
PectinDAT Supply gummies are pectin-based; gelatin is not offered. Pectin grade and water activity drive texture.
Serving and pack count
Confirmed during order setupUnits per serving and units per pack are set in the specification, alongside the pack configuration.
Claim wording
Reviewed before artwork is lockedClaim wording reviewed against EU 1924/2006 and 432/2012 before production.

Sachets, powder sticks, oral strips and functional jellies run through the same order workflow, so a gummy range can extend into other formats without changing supplier.

Packaging & minimums

PET jar or doypack

Two packaging routes with two different minimums. Sachet is available as a third route for single-serve concepts; pack configuration — units per pack, count, film, outer and logistics — is confirmed per project.

Packaging routeMost launches

PET jar

The rigid jar format — the shelf-standard presentation for a gummy range, and the lowest entry minimum in the range.

Doypack

The stand-up pouch — lighter to ship and a different shelf presence, at a higher entry minimum than the jar.

Final minimum order quantity, pricing and timelines are confirmed as you build the product inside your DAT Supply account. Packaging, flavour, colour or shape adjustments are reviewed on your order once it starts.

Where you start

Start from a catalogue formula, as it is or adapted

Two routes into a gummy line. Most brands start on the left of this and only move to Formula Adaptation when a catalogue formula needs a different active, dosage or ingredient.

Formula Adaptation production starts from 3,000 units per SKU.

Production

How a gummy batch runs

What physically happens to your formula, in order. Every parameter named here is set in the specification and judged on samples before the batch runs.

  1. Step 01

    Slurry and active dosing

    The gelling system is prepared and the active stack is dosed into it against the reviewed specification. Heat-sensitive actives are assessed for the gummy process during the brief, before anything is committed.

  2. Step 02

    Depositing and setting

    The slurry is deposited into moulds and left to set. Shape, unit weight and fill are properties of the mould and the deposit, which is why they are confirmed as part of the specification rather than changed later.

  3. Step 03

    Curing and finishing

    Set gummies are cured, then finished. The finish — coated or uncoated — is part of the formula specification and is judged on physical samples before production, not described on a page.

  4. Step 04

    Filling and batch release

    Finished gummies are filled into the agreed pack, and batch documentation is released by stage. Standard production lead time is approximately 8 weeks after formula/specification, artwork and payment are approved. Shipping/transit is additional.

Samples

Judge the gummy in your hand, before you commit

Texture, bite, flavour and finish are the four things a gummy buyer cannot evaluate from a specification. Ready sample kits and development samples both ship before any production order is confirmed.

  • Ready sample kits — catalogue gummies, as they are produced today
  • Development samples — produced against your agreed direction
  • Sign-off on samples is what releases the batch to production
Documentation

Documentation by stage, not on day one

Each document is released to the brand owner at its project stage. A Certificate of Analysis or independent lab testing is available on request.

EU & UK regulatory posture

Production is reviewed against the EU and UK food-supplement frameworks: NRV-based labelling, EU Regulation 1924/2006 claim wording and notification scope are checked per project before artwork is locked. Importer, responsible-party and customs responsibilities are confirmed for the applicable order and destination.

Comes with your gummy order

  • Per-SKU gummy specification and allergen statement
  • On-pack copy reviewed against the rules of the market you sell in, before artwork is locked
  • Batch release and traceability documents with your batch

Stays with the brand owner

  • The brand, the artwork and the final commercial claim decision

FAQ

Gummy manufacturing questions

What is the minimum order quantity for private-label gummies?

Private-label gummy orders start from 1,000 units. Formula Adaptation production starts from 3,000 units per SKU. An approved flavour, colour or shape is configured on the order at the same unit price.

Can I order gummy samples before committing?

Yes. Order Ready Samples of catalogue gummies, or a Personalization Sample in your chosen flavour, colour or shape where the product offers one, to confirm taste and texture before you start a full gummy order. Finished packaging is chosen on the order.

Are vegan gummies available?

Yes — all DAT Supply gummies are pectin-based, which is plant-derived and vegan-positioned, subject to formula and claim review for the market you sell in. DAT Supply does not offer a gelatin gummy base.

When is a gummy the wrong format?

When the per-serving active load is the point. A gummy carries less active per serving than a powder format, so greens, electrolyte, collagen and creatine concepts are usually built as sachets instead. DAT Supply offers both, so the format is a product decision rather than a supplier decision.

How are gummy claims handled for the EU and UK markets?

Claim wording reviewed against EU 1924/2006 and 432/2012 before production.
