Easter Mold

This one just turned out too perfect not to share.
Happy Easter!
T



















HOW IT'S DONE:

Ingredients:
13 envelopes plain gelatin.
1 (3 oz.) box of strawberry Jello
1 can condensed milk
1 cup sugar
vanilla or other flavor of your choice
food coloring
water

Flowers first:
Dissolve 2 envelopes plain gelatin in 1 cup boiling water for 2 minutes.
Add 1 tablespoon condensed milk and a drop of vanilla.
Divide into four parts, and add a drop of food coloring, making four different colors.
Spray a silicon ice cube tray with cooking spray. (I used a flower mold.)
Fill with colored gelatin and let set in refrigerator until firm, at least 15 minutes.


Clear layer second:
Allow 5 envelopes of plain gelatin to "blossom" in 1 cup cold water.
Add 3 cups boiling water, stir until completely dissolved, about 3 minutes.
Add 1 cup sugar and a 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla, (I added a drop of peach flavoring to mine.)
Stir until dissolved, about 1 minute.
Pour half of clear gelatin into bundt pan.
Chill bundt pan in refrigerator for about 10-15 minutes, until it's set.
DO NOT CHILL OTHER HALF.
Remove flowers from mold.
Arrange the flowers (face down) onto your clear layer.
Pour remaining clear gelatin around flowers, chill until set.
If the other half of the clear gelatin (that has been not chilling) has set too much to pour around flowers, add a 1/4 cup of boiling water and stir for 2 minutes until dissolved. Don't pour hot gelatin onto the next layer. Wait until it's luke-warm.

White third layer:
Allow 4 envelopes of plain gelatin to "blossom" in 1/2 cup cold water.
Add 2 cups boiling water, stir until completely dissolved, about 3 minutes.
Add 3 tablespoons condensed milk and a 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla.
Chill until cool enough to pour onto next layer. About 10-15 minutes or until luke-warm.
Pour onto into bundt pan and chill until set.

Last pink layer:
Dissolve 1 (3oz.) box of strawberry Jello with 2 envelopes of plain gelatin.
Stir for 3 minutes. Add remaining condensed milk, about 4 tablespoons.
Chill until cool enough to pour onto next layer. About 10-15 minutes or until luke-warm.
Pour onto into bundt pan and chill until set.
