I'm about to start making gummies and this thread was very helpful so hopefully I won't make too many rookie mistakes.
I blew $150Can ordering two 4ml - 192 cavity sheets that were on sale for $40US but with shipping and exchange put a dent in my VISA card. One is the
Canadian emblem for THC used on legal pot here and the other is just
CBD in block letters. When I first got them and saw CBD wasn't reversed like THC was I thought they would come out backwards on the gummies and sent a bit of a bitchy email to the company but they assured me it comes out OK so I tried sticking some modelling clay into one and damned if they weren't right. Colour me red in the face.

Just about to order 2kg each of cherry, orange and lemon Jell-O from amazon . ca but will see if they have the guar gum too as that seems like a useful ingredient. Each mould takes 768ml to fill all the spaces so will be big batches and I will be using concentrated oils to get my meds in the mix. As I have issues with alcohol I think I'll use a Tbsp of MCT oil to dissolve the pot oil to get it in. I just set a little beaker on my coffee warmer and it stirs right in nicely.
A thought I have is use the big cookie sheet I got for the wife that has a nice flat wire rack that my new moulds fit on perfectly so put some water in the cookie sheet and set it across two elements on the stove to keep the water hot but not boiling then as I fill the holes it will stay liquid until I remove it from the heat. Then rather than try to fill each one with a squeeze bottle or something just pour it on and use a straight edge to scrape the whole thing to one end to be caught on some parchment paper or the large silicon sheet that came with the cookie sheet set and why I bought the damn thing in the first place. Didn't have to tell the wife that so she was happy with her 'present'.
That company in the links sells all sorts of different moulds and has some specific to some US states and the Canadian THC one I mentioned. also after I paid for them they sent me a 10% discount code for my next purchase but I don't need anything else from them so mentioned that and they refunded my VISA that 10% so really nice people and every email was answered right away. 2 thumbs up from me!
