Grandma's 2-ingredient raspberry flummery

Whip up this simple dessert when the family visits and serve them a bowl of sweet memories. With just two ingredients – a packet of raspberry jelly and cream – making an impressive dessert has never been easier! How to make Grandma’s 2-ingredient raspberry flummery: key tips Make sure you leave enough time to make this dish. While the prep is super-quick, you will need up to 4 hours of total setting time in the fridge. When you dissolve the jelly crystals in boiling water, the gelatine in the crystals hydrates and then starts to solidify as it cools in the fridge. You only want the jelly to partially set so that it can be whipped with the cream to create the light and fluffy texture of the flummery. Pour your whipped mixture into serving dishes and then refrigerate them until the mixture sets firm, like a mousse. You can serve your flummeries topped with fresh raspberries to make them appear more attractive. Key ingredients in this Grandma’s 2-ingredient raspberry flummery recipe A packet of raspberry jelly crystals contains the flavour and the gelatin required to set your flummery. You can choose other flavoured jelly crystals, if you like. The cream in this recipe softens and lightens the jelly base, helping to create a mousse-like texture. It also adds richness and silkiness to this retro dessert. See all of our favourite flummery recipes here. I particularly like the look of this zesty lemon flummery slice!
