JELLIES
Both of my jellies turned out fine. The duo might need just a bit more sweet flavor to bring out their dessertishness. However, the base flavor combinations seemed to work well. The cardamom was too mild, so on that one I'll increase most of the ingredients next time. The banana one worked out just right, except that the banana chunks turned a hideous gray while in the fridge. I don't mind, but as a "company dessert" I would have to puree the bananas better or add food coloring (gasp!).
Here's what I put in them (in addition to 1 envelope of Knox):
Cream Cardamom Coffee
1 3/4 cup water
1/4 cup half&half
1/4 tsp cardamom
Splenda (forgot how much)
1 T brewed coffee
Soy Banana Rum
1 cup water
1 cup soy milk (Silk unsweetened)
Splenda
2 very ripe and mashed up bananas
1 teaspoon Hershey's syrup
1 T rum
If I can make a batch that tastes excellent, I will probably note down the formula and then use it for a party dessert - putting servings in ramekin cups for effect. Both would go well with a dollop of whipped cream, flavored to complement (coffee for the first one, and rum for the 2nd).
