Glittering Watermelon & Shiny Jelly

My dad asked me to make him a dessert like this. This dessert manages to keep the texture of fresh watermelon and is combined with a slightly fizzy sparkling jelly for pure bliss in a glass.
You can make the watermelon puree by blending around 150 g of watermelon flesh in a food processor or with a hand mixer.
You can replace the sparkling wine with a non-alcoholic drink so that this jelly can be shared with the entire family. Recipe by Run

Add in the lemon juice and put the bowl in an ice bath. Mix until the jelly starts to thicken. Add the crushed watermelon flesh, along with any juices, and mix in well. Transfer everything to a glass and leave to chill and set in the refrigerator.

Watermelon Jelly on Watermelon Bavarian Cream Watermelon Jelly on Watermelon Bavarian Cream
I wanted to come up with a cold dessert using watermelon. I love both Bavarian cream and gelatin desserts, so I combined them in one glass to enjoy them both.Dissolve the gelatin by microwaving for about 20 seconds. If you heat it too much, the gelatin won't set, so be careful. In step 4, stir the base mix until it's the same consistency as the soft whipped cream before combining the two. (Softly whipped means that it feels a bit thick.) Add the jelly after the Bavarian cream has set. I used powdered sugar since it dissolves easily, but you can use regular sugar too. If the sugar doesn't dissolve easily, warm up the juice a bit. Recipe by Akito mama cookpad.japan -

Strawberry Jelly Strawberry Jelly
I love strawberries so I use lots of them.I always make this when I can get my hands on cheap and tasty strawberries.I finally came up with this recipe after many trial and errors, thinking about the following points: To prevent discoloration, the gelatin liquid should be pinkish, prevent scum floating on top and keep a nice strawberry texture. The picture has two layers, and the bottom part is milk pudding. I used gelatin that requires 250 ml liquid per 5 g gelatin powder. Please check the gelatin package and adjust the amount of liquid you use. Recipe by Ma-nyan cookpad.japan -
Bursting with Fruit Juice! Sparkling Jelly Treats Bursting with Fruit Juice! Sparkling Jelly Treats
I made this through trial and error and finally reached this. It is refreshing in the summer, and the combination of the textures of sugar and gelatin became a texture that my children like.This will stick even if you wet the mold, so make sure to spread parchment paper. These will have a nicer firmness 2~3 days after making them, and the granulated sugar will have sunk in, making them more delicious.This is made using gelatin, so I store it in the fridge to prolong the texture.
