Fruity Milk Jellies Recipes

FRUIT JELLIES

Steps:

• Place 2/3 cup juice in a small bowl or measuring cup and sprinkle with gelatin. Let sit 5 minutes. Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, combine remaining 2/3 cup juice and 1 1/2 cups of the sugar. Bring to a boil over medium-high and cook, stirring, until sugar dissolves, 5 minutes. Add preserves and whisk to combine. Return to a boil and cook until thick and syrupy, 2 minutes. Add gelatin mixture and whisk until gelatin dissolves. Pour through a fine-mesh sieve into an 8-inch square baking dish. Refrigerate until set, 3 hours (or up to 2 weeks).
• Place remaining 1 cup sugar in a pie plate or shallow bowl. Cut fruit jelly into 1-inch squares. Toss in sugar to coat just before serving.

FRUITY MILK JELLIES

Steps:

• Pour four gelatine leaves in a bowl of cold water and set aside for 5 mins to soften. Measure 150ml milk into a small pan and heat until just steaming. When the gelatine is soft, squeeze out the water and add to the milk, stir until dissolved, then set aside until the milk has cooled to room temperature.
• In a food processor, blitz the peaches, 50g icing sugar and 150ml milk. If you want a really intense colour, add a drop of yellow food colouring. Strain the mixture into a bowl through a fine sieve, then stir in the cooled milk and gelatine. Lightly oil two jelly moulds and divide the mixture between them. Chill for 1 hr, or until just set - don't chill for too long or the layers won't adhere properly and the jellies may split when turned out.
• Repeat steps 1 and 2, this time using the raspberries and pink food colouring. It's very important that the mixture is at room temperature before it is poured on top of the peach jelly, otherwise the bottom layer will melt. Return the moulds to the fridge for 1 hr or until just set. Then repeat the method using the blackberries and purple food colour and chill, followed by the mango and orange food colouring. Chill for 2 hrs, or up to 24 hrs.
• To serve, dip the moulds in warm water to help release the jellies, then invert onto plates or cake stands. Serve with ice cream and extra berries, if you like.

FRUIT JELLY CANDIES

Steps:

• Spray two 8-inch square pans with vegetable-oil spray. Prepare flavoring.
• In a 6-quart saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over 2 cups water; let gelatin soften for about 3 minutes. Add granulated sugar and citric acid. Heat slowly over low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until sugar has dissolved, about 10 minutes. Wash down sides of pan with a wet pastry brush to remove any sugar crystals.
• Increase heat to high; bring gelatin to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low and boil gelatin, without stirring, 15 minutes. The syrup needs to be watched while it boils; if it starts to turn dark tan before the 15 minutes, it is ready. Remove from heat.
• Let stand for 5 minutes while bubbles dissipate; some white foam will remain. Whisk in flavoring. Without scraping pot, pour evenly into prepared pans. Let stand, uncovered, for 24 hours. Unmold, cut into 1-inch squares or other desired shapes; roll in superfine or confectioners' sugar, and serve.
