This delightful treat is not only visually appealing but also an explosion of taste in every bite. In this blog post, we will walk you through the step-by-step process of making a HARIBO Jelly Cake that will surely impress your friends and family at any gathering.
Ingredients:
Before we start crafting our HARIBO Jelly Cake, let’s gather the necessary ingredients:
For the Jelly Layers:
- 6 different flavors of HARIBO gummies (e.g., raspberry, orange, lemon, strawberry, apple, and pineapple)
- 6 packs of unflavored gelatin (about 1.5 ounces or 42 grams)
- 1 cup water per jelly layer
For the Cream Layer:
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Step-by-Step Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the Jelly Layers
Start by selecting six different flavors of HARIBO gummies. You can choose your favorite flavors or mix and match to create a colorful assortment. Separate each flavor into individual bowls.
In a separate bowl, sprinkle one pack of unflavored gelatin over 1 cup of water. Allow the gelatin to bloom for about 5 minutes.
While the gelatin blooms, heat the bowl of gummies in the microwave for about 30 seconds to soften them. Once softened, mash the gummies with a fork or potato masher to break them down.
In a saucepan, heat the mashed gummies over low heat until they liquefy completely. Add the bloomed gelatin to the gummy mixture and stir until the gelatin dissolves.
Pour the first jelly layer into a greased or parchment-lined cake pan, ensuring it spreads evenly. Repeat this process for each flavor, creating six layers of colorful jelly. Refrigerate the cake pan between each layer for about 30 minutes to allow the jelly to set.
Step 2: Prepare the Cream Layer
In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip the cream.
Step 3: Assemble the HARIBO Jelly Cake
Once all the jelly layers are set, carefully remove them from the cake pan. Layer the different colored jellies on a serving plate, starting with the bottom layer and alternating colors until all layers are stacked.
Spread a thin layer of whipped cream over the top and sides of the jelly cake to create a smooth finish. You can also add dollops of whipped cream on top for decoration.
Step 4: Decorate and Chill
Now comes the fun part – decorate your HARIBO Jelly Cake with extra HARIBO gummies on top. Get creative with the arrangement, and let the vibrant colors of the gummies shine through.
Finally, cover the cake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the cream layer to set, ensuring a perfect slice every time.
Congratulations! You’ve created a show-stopping HARIBO Jelly Cake that’s as delightful to look at as it is to eat. This colorful and fun dessert is sure to be a hit at any celebration or gathering. The combination of fruity HARIBO gummies and creamy whipped topping makes for an unforgettable treat that will leave your taste buds dancing with joy.
