How To Make Halloween Jelly
You’ll just LOVE how easy these Halloween desserts are to make – and the little individual pots mean they’re so much easier for parties!
- Make up the lime jelly – make up a pint of jelly as per the packet instructions.
- Pour the jelly into the small bowls – then place in the fridge for 45 minutes to chill.
- Add the jelly snakes and worms – only add these once the jelly is cold (but still liquid) otherwise they melt into the warm jelly liquid
- Let the jelly set in the fridge – put the Halloween jelly back into the fridge for 3-4 hours to set properly.
You could make the Halloween jelly pots with strawberry or raspberry jelly and drop in little Halloween jelly sweet eyes or spiders.
