Hi Nagi thanks for the recipe! Just something I noticed, in the video you put the gelatine into the hot cranberry juice, but in the written instructions, it implies you should add it to the cold. I’m wondering if this could affect how it sets?

I just made this recipe for the first time and it will now be my go-to! Who knew you could make jelly out of cranberry juice so easily? The texture of the jelly was beautiful and the custard so creamy – I will not be going back to a box of jelly crystals! Note: I used a measuring spoon for the gelatine and didn’t add the cooked custard for several hours after – ensuring the jelly was set. I made this recipe using lactose free milk for the custard and it set beautifully. I made it 48hrs in advance with the exception of the cream – I added that, strawberries and grated chocolate a couple of hours prior to serving. I only made the three layers with jam roll pieces in the base of the jelly. My husband absolutely loved it and my guests commented on how nice it was. I am so pleased with the outcome.

Thanks Nagi.

In reply to Kelly.

Thanks for the tip Kelly! My first jelly didn’t set and then I saw this note. For the next attempt I used 8 (and a bit) teaspoons of gelatine and it was perfect.

Came out great. Definitely worth making the cranberry juice jelly from scratch.
