Things you will need

To make jelly from a packet, you’ll need the following items:

• A jelly packet of your choice
• Cold water
• Boiling water
• A mixing bowl
• A whisk
• Mold or container

Step-by-step guide

Step 1: Gather the ingredients

Gather all of the above-mentioned ingredients and make sure they're all at room temperature.

Step 2: Prepare the mold or container

Prepare the mold or container you’ll be using to set the jelly. You can use a bowl, a cup or any shape you want your jelly to take.

Step 3: Mix the packet contents with cold water

Empty the packet content into a mixing bowl and add some cold water to it. Stir gently until the mixture is even.

Step 4: Add boiling water to the mix
