How to Make Almond Jelly With Fruit Salad

  1. In a large saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar and 2 cups water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly until sugar dissolves completely.
  2. Remove from heat and carefully sprinkle 2 tablespoons of powdered gelatin over the hot sugar syrup. Let it sit for 1 minute to soften.
  3. Gently stir the gelatin until it is completely dissolved in the syrup.
  4. Stir in 1 teaspoon almond extract, 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk, and 3 cups of cold water. Mix until thoroughly combined and smooth.
  5. Pour the mixture into a 19 x 29 cm (approximately 7.5 x 11.5 inch) rectangular baking dish or similar sized container.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, until the jelly is firm and set.
  7. Once set, use a sharp knife to cut the jelly into 2 cm cubes.
  8. Arrange the cubed almond jelly in individual serving bowls. Top with your favorite fresh fruit salad (strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, etc.).
