I wanted to make a jelly that would go well with the Tanabata Festival.

I used a 13 x 7cm glass dish for the mould. You could also use plum juice or soda. Recipe by decocookie

Steps

1

These are the ingredients.
2

Dissolve 2.5 g of gelatin in 35 ml of hot water, and add 15 ml of syrup and the umeshu (plum wine). Mix together, then add the food colouring to make a dark blue colour, and pour into the mould.
3

Chill in the fridge.
4

Get 1/2 of a peach, and cut it into a moon shape using a circle cookie cutter. Adjust the thickness with a kitchen knife.
5

Remove the cooled jelly from the fridge, and decorate it with the moon and star-shaped sprinkles. Make the Milky Way in the center with the gold dust.
6

Dissolve 2.5 g of gelatin in 20 ml of hot water. Add 1 tablespoon of the 60 ml of syrup that you previously measured, and mix.
7

Using a spoon, gently pour some over the gelatin base (coat the gold dust and star-shaped sugar decorations so that they won't float).
8

Chill it in the fridge until the surface is completely set.
9

Dissolve the remaining 5 g of gelatin in 140 ml of hot water, add all of the remaining syrup and mix well.
10

Once the jelly has set, add the mixture little by little with a spoon, then slowly pour it in so that the decorations do not float off.
11

Chill in the fridge for 1-2 hours, and it's complete.

It looks like this from the side.
