When Little Miss J turned one we made these jelly oranges for her birthday tea. It was nostalgic for me because all birthday parties had these when I was a small child. Nobody else seems to remember them, do you?Pretty colours + jelly + feeding myself = baby heaven.
Be prepared for a jelly fall out zone so best to give them to the babies outside on the lawn.
To make:
- Halve oranges and scoop out fruit (make orange juice while you are at it).
- Place halved fruit skins on a tray and fill with jelly liquid.
- Chill in fridge until set, you may have to top up the jellies as they set, so keep jelly liquid in reserve.
- Once set cut carefully in half.
I love this! I just blogged today about my daughter's upcoming birthday party - I'm adding these fruit jellies to the list!
