Jellies

Posted by Lisa at 02:55


Just because you want to have a healthier lifestyle doesn't mean you can't still have awesome parties and treats. It just takes a bit of effort!

These Jelly snacks are a great way to introducing healthier treat choices to other people. Most won't believe they contain so little!


JELLIES
The shape of the jellies will depend on the mould used


INGREDIENTS
1 cup strained juice (orange, pineapple, raspberry etc)
1 Tablespoon lemon juice
3 tablespoons Gelatin


INSTRUCTIONS
Juice and strain 1 cup of fresh juice (I used oranges)
Bring juice to the boil in a saucepan over medium heat.
Once boiling, add lemon juice and take off heat.
Allow to cool for 3 minutes.
Add gelatin to the juice, 1 tablespoon at a time whisking well after each addition.
Add gelatin slowly and ensure it is whisked in to remove any lumps.

Immediately, pour the mixture into the moulds (I used plastic Chocolate moulds but silicon would work also), being careful not to overfill.
Leave to cool on bench and set slightly before setting in fridge.
Once set, remove jellies from the moulds.

Unlike the store bought versions, these jellies will only keep for 2-3 days. That is because they have no sugar or artificial flavours or additives!
