Bursting with Fruit Juice! Sparkling Jelly Treats
- 200 ml 100% fruit juice (I used apple juice in the photo)
- 150 grams Caster sugar or granulated sugar
- 1 grams Powdered kanten
- 7 grams Gelatin
- 1 tbsp Boiling water
- Soak the gelatin in hot water.
- Add sugar and kanten to the juice, and turn on the heat.
- Heat over high until it comes to a boil.
- Adjust the heat little by little after bringing it to a boil to prevent boiling over, and reduce while stirring with a spatula.
- Beware of reducing too much.
- After it has thickened overall, and is opaque on the spatula, turn off the heat.
- There should be somewhat large bubbles.
- This will become like hard candy if you reduce it too much, so be careful.
- Spread out parchment paper in a bento box, etc.
- You will not heat it in this, so you can secure the edges with tape.
- Add soaked gelatin to the juice liquid, mix well, and pour into the mold.
- After it has cooled, chill in the fridge to solidify.
- After it has solidified, spread out the parchment paper, and cut into pieces while coating in granulated sugar.
- Or use cookie cutters (I used grape juice here).
- Place into a Tupperware, chill in the fridge without covering with a lid, and dry it out while flipping over a few times.
- This has a completely different texture 2-3 days later as opposed to eating it right away (see Helpful Hints).
- I used a star-shaped cutter in the top photo.
- I cut these into squares.
