Yay, it worked! I've just finished making these beautiful, jewel-like gummies from your recipe. I'm trying to add an image, hope it shows. Thank you so much for this recipe - last night I used a different i'ble, with slightly different amounts of water and gelatine to yours; and I ended up with marshmallows instead of gummies.

Forgive me for sticking my nose in and replying ahead of the creator of these yummy treats! This is what I used to make these:

One 85gm box of jelly (all jelly crystals come in 85gm packets over here).

3 rounded, OR 3 heaped tablespoons of gelatine, depending on how solid you want the gummies to be. (I wasn't able to find any gelatin in those little individual serve sachets). I really liked using 3 heaped tablespoons of gelatine, as the more solid they are, the less sticky they seem to be.

I didn't put cornstarch/cornflour on my next batch after the ones in the photo, because these little beauties didn't stick, luckily. And they're almost transparent if you don't use cornflour on them - so beautiful :-)

They do make sugar free Jello. I'm sure gelatin is OK as it's made from meat. Some Paleo allow moderate amounts of artificial sweeteners.
