Gelatine, With Fruit

Ingredients

• 1 ounce box of gelatine
• juice of 3 lemons and 1 orange
• 3 cups of sugar
• 1/2 cup of candied cherries
• 1 pound of blanched almonds
• whipped cream

Instructions

Take gelatine; put to soak in a pint of cold water for an hour. Take the lemon and orange juice, with sugar; add this to the gelatine, and pour over all three pints of boiling water: let this boil up once, stirring all the time. Take two moulds of the same size, and pour half your jelly into each. Stir into one mould candied cherries, and into the other blanched almonds. The almonds will rise to the top. Let these moulds stand on ice, or in a cool place until thoroughly set, twenty-four hours is best. When ready to serve loosen the sides, and place the almond jelly on top the other, on a fruit platter. Slice down and serve with whipped cream.
