Fruit Jelly Cake

If you love jellies like I do, you will definitely enjoy this cold, refreshing, moderately sweet and tangy fruit jelly cake. It's a perfect party food as well.

1.  For best results, weigh the ingredients with a digital scale.

2.  In a pot, add the sweetener, agar agar powder and mix to combine. Then add the water, milk and whisk to combine.

3.  Transfer the pot to the stove top. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until boiling and the agar powder and sweetener are dissolved.

4.  Turn the heat to low then add the yogurt. Whisk until smooth and creamy. Then remove the pan from heat.

5.  In the video, I used a 7-inch (18 cm) round pan. Wet the pan so that the sliced strawberries can stick to the sides of the pan.

6.  Stick some sliced strawberries on the side of the pan.

7.  Spread a thin layer of the agar mixture at the bottom of the pan. This is to prevent the top layer of the fruits from sticking to the pan and also from appearing above the agar mixture.

8.  Line some of the sliced strawberries and blackberries at the bottom of the pan.

9.  Add the leftover strawberries and blackberries and the whole blueberries into the agar mixture. Stir to combine then spoon into the pan.

10.  Chill in the fridge. It sets quite quickly but to enjoy it really chilled, it needs a few hours in the fridge.

11. Now the challenge is in removing the jelly cake from the pan. Firstly, loosen the sides with a spatula or anything suitable. Then invert with a plate and tap the pan a few times to release the jelly. If this fails, just add some hot water onto a bigger pan and rest the pan with jelly on the hot water for just 10 seconds. After 10 seconds, remove the pan and invert with a plate. The jelly should come out nicely.

12. Slice and enjoy.
