 Easy 4-Ingredient Mosaic Jelly (Panna Cotta Style)

This stunning yet simple dessert — known as Mosaic Jelly or Broken Glass Jelly — is a nostalgic treat popular across Eastern Europe and Latin America. It’s creamy, refreshing, and looks like edible stained glass!

🛒 Ingredients:

• 3–4 packs (85g each) of different flavored jelly (e.g., strawberry, lime, orange, raspberry)

• 1 can (14 oz / 400ml) sweetened condensed milk

• 2 cups boiling water (for dissolving jelly)

• 2 packets (¼ oz / 7g each) unflavored gelatin

• 1 cup cold water

👩‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Prepare the Colored Jelly Cubes:

   • Dissolve each flavor of jelly separately by combining with 1 cup of boiling water, stirring until fully dissolved.

   • Pour each flavor into a separate container or tray. Refrigerate for 3–4 hours or until completely set.

2. Cut the Jelly into Cubes:

   • Once set, cut each colored jelly into small cubes. Mix them gently in a large bowl.

3. Prepare the Creamy Gelatin Layer:

   • Sprinkle unflavored gelatin over 1 cup of cold water. Let it bloom for 5 minutes.

   • Warm the mixture gently over low heat or in the microwave for 30 seconds, stirring until fully dissolved.

   • Stir in the sweetened condensed milk until smooth.

4. Combine and Set:

   • Pour the creamy milk and gelatin mixture over the jelly cubes. Stir gently to coat.

   • Pour everything into a mold or dish. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until fully set.

5. Serve:

   • Dip the mold in warm water for a few seconds to loosen, then invert onto a plate.

   • Slice and enjoy cold!

💡 Tips:

• Use a variety of bright jelly colors for a beautiful mosaic effect.

• For a lighter version, replace condensed milk with coconut milk and a touch of sugar.
