Cathedral Jelly

 

  1. 3-ounce box strawberry or cherry gelatin powder
    3-ounce box lime gelatin powder
    3-ounce box orange gelatin powder
    1 cup boiling water per box
    1/3 cup cold water per box
    1 cup sweetened condensed milk
    1 cup heavy whipping cream
    1 1/2 cups boiling water (separate from above)
    1 cup coconut water
    1/2 cup pineapple juice
    3 tablespoons unflavored gelatin powder
    3 to 6 tablespoons white sugar
    Canola oil or baking spray, for greasing containers
  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup boiling water and a box of flavored gelatin. Whisk well for two minutes, or until the gelatin dissolves.
  2. Add 1/3 cup of cold water. Whisk well.
  3. Pour into a container greased with canola oil or cooking spray.
  4. Repeat with the remaining gelatin flavors.
  5. Chill the flavored gelatins in the refrigerator for 2-4 hours, or until firm.
  6. Once the gelatins have set, cut into 1-inch cubes or chunks. If you're using three flavors, you'll need about 1 1/2 cups of each.
  7. Grease a bundt pan, then add the cubed gelatin, making sure to evenly disperse the colors. If you're using a 6-cup bundt pan, set aside 1/2 cup of each color to be used in a separate smaller container.
  8. In a large bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups boiling water and the unflavored gelatin powder. Whisk well for two minutes to dissolve.
  9. Add the sugar, coconut water, pineapple juice, and 20-25 drops of coconut extract. Whisk well.
  10. Gradually add the condensed milk and heavy whipping cream. Slowly mix until combined.
  11. Let the mixture sit until slightly thickened, about 8-12 minutes.
  12. Pour into the bundt pan over the flavored gelatin. If you're using a 6-cup bundt pan, you'll have some cream leftover. Add this to a smaller greased container with the leftover gelatin cubes.
  13. Chill the jelly for four hours or overnight.
  14. Once firm, run a knife along the sides of the jelly to loosen. You can also let it sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes.
  15. Carefully turn it over on a large plate. Slice and enjoy!
