I know these shape of sweets as dew drops, but I'm curious to know what you call them, if anything.

What do you call these sweets?

Gum drops here.

I wonder whether one or more of these names were a brand name for the sweets? A bit like the way some people call coarse sherbet kali.

I’d just call them ‘the nice jelly ones from dolly mixtures’ - all other DM sweets are horrible but these are yum.
Not as nice as jelly tots of course but still good.

I'm in the Jube Jubes corner. It's what we all called them in my neck of the woods.

I have heard of jujubes but not jube jubes. Jujubes are jelly sweets named after a little fruit (maybe a plum or something?)

I just call them jellies here (Irish in Ireland)
Jelly tots are flatter and come in a yellow bag.
