you can usually find vegetarian / vegan gelatins in a health food

store... i think they're made with fruit pectin, the same thing

that's in jelly.

I'm pretty sure Kosher gelatins (sold in small boxes, the size of JELL-O) are

vegan.

Especially now, during a month that includes Jewish holidays, you can find

this item in many large supermarket chain stores....sometimes, you can even find

" plain " unflavored - the brand I have seen is called KO-JEL (spelling may be

a little off :)

 

Love,

Cherie

You can use a substance called agar agar. Its plant based and acts

exactly like geletine. You just have to play with it a bit at first,

because its a little fussy to work with, and if you use just a

fraction to much it isn't very nice. You should be able to find agar

agar in health food stores.

a tip in shopping for agar agar. check your local oriental market first, if you

have one. chances are you'll find it MUCH cheaper than a health foods store. I

bought a large bag of agar strings for $3.?? at an oriental market as opposed to

$5-$6 for one piddly ounce of agar flakes at wild oats or whole foods here in

las vegas.
