Gelatine Paste for Ornamenting Ices
Ingredients
Directions
Make clear jelly by dissolving gelatin in water.
Reduce the jelly by slow boiling until it thickens slightly.
Add food coloring and flavoring as desired.
Cool the mixture on large platters.
Use cookie cutters to stamp out shapes like leaves and flowers.
Place the shapes on molded ices immediately after they are turned out.
