Sweeties

Jelly! By the amazing 'jellymongers' Bompas and Parr. With my birthday coming up, I feel like bringing back the birthday classics- elaborate cakes and jelly.

I might try these Margarita lime jellies- the classy version of the jelly shot.

Or how about I whip up a glow in the dark gin and tonic jelly? Another Bompas and Parr creation.

This is my lobster mold that I found in an antique shop the other day. I love him, and can't wait to fill him with jelly

I made a red velvet (chocolate) cake inside him. It was delicious!




I found these amazing antique molds that are supposedley from the 1800s on Ebay. Jelly was used to make extravagent centrepieces...probably filled with goose fat or something.
