Method

  • step 1

    Put the gelatine sheets into a bowl of cold water to soften for a few mins. Put 100ml clementine juice into a small pan and gently heat. When the gelatine feels soft and the juice is just simmering, remove the juice from the heat and squeeze out any excess water from the gelatine sheets. Drop the sheets into the hot juice and swirl to melt. Make sure there are no visible lumps of gelatine before you move onto the next stage.

  • step 2

    Stir the hot juice into the rest of the juice with the prosecco, then transfer to a jug. Pour between 6 small glasses. Sit the jellies in a small tray or dish, cover with a sheet of cling film and chill for at least 4 hrs (or up to 48 hrs) until set.

  • step 3

    When ready to serve, use a pair of tweezers to carefully put a piece of gold leaf on the surface of each jelly.

I thought these were ok but a few of my guests loved them. Definitely test your juice before adding gelatine because some fruit might need w little extra sugar. They were a good get ahead dessert and simple to make so I may make them again.

I agree with several comments regarding the slightly bitter taste - I recently made this for the second time putting a heaped table spoon of sugar to the heating clementine juice and using a medium-dry Cava instead of Prosecco.

The result was much better than the previous version and the sugar…

Ok dessert that's nice to follow rich food. Needed more clementine juice to give it more zing. I would repeat it but next time I'd add some whipped cream as a topping.
