These vibrant and refreshing layered fruit jelly cups are a visually stunning dessert with a perfect balance of sweet flavors and colorful layers. The combination of fruity gel, topped with a mint garnish and whipped cream, creates a delightful treat for any occasion.
Ingredients
-
1 package of fruit-flavored jelly (mango, strawberry, orange, etc.)
-
1 cup water (for dissolving jelly powder)
-
1/2 cup cold water (for each layer)
-
1/2 cup whipped cream
-
Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)
-
1 tablespoon sugar (optional for whipped cream)
Instructions
-
Start by preparing the fruit-flavored jelly according to the package instructions. Dissolve the jelly powder in hot water and stir well.
-
Divide the dissolved jelly mixture into separate bowls depending on how many layers you want. For example, use three bowls if you want three colorful layers.
-
Add food coloring (if desired) to each jelly mixture to create vibrant layers. You can use pink for strawberry, orange for mango, and yellow for lemon, or choose your favorite colors.
-
Pour the first layer of jelly into small glass cups, filling about one-third of each cup. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes, or until set.
-
Once the first layer is set, pour the second layer carefully over the back of a spoon to avoid mixing with the first layer. Refrigerate again until set, about 30 minutes.
-
Repeat with the third layer and chill until completely firm.
-
In a separate bowl, whip the cream with a tablespoon of sugar until it reaches soft peaks.
-
Once the jelly layers are set, top each cup with a dollop of whipped cream and garnish with a fresh mint leaf for added freshness and elegance.
-
Serve chilled and enjoy the colorful, fruity treat!
Notes
-
You can mix up the flavors and colors to match any theme or occasion.
-
The whipped cream adds a creamy texture that complements the jelly layers perfectly.
