Guest guest Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 Haines Superfruits! Good tasting but sometimes does not set up well, I like to add a little less water than they say especially if I am adding fruit. Also they do not have alot of different flavors, just orange, cherry and strawberry.

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 I know that you can use agar-agar flakes, which is derived from a sea vegetable. It is the best non animal substitute for gelatin. You can usually find this at a health food store. Michelle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 Hi The most common vegetarian gelatin used by home cooks is agar-agar, which comes in powder or flakes. The package directions will explain how to use it. Another thing that " gels " in a similar way is arrowroot. Commercially you will see guar gum and xanthum gum used alot.. in soy dairy-product subs like sour cream. Good luck :-) shazadi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 In the UK there's a product called Vege-Gel. It's unflavoured and based on carageenan I think. Or one of the other seaweeds that act as gelling agents. Some of quick setting flavoured jellies are carageenan, as are the ready made individual jellies. These are supermarket varieties that are common here - they're usually stocked right next to their gelatine counterparts. There are also health food shop versions that I can't remember the brand names of.

Hi Kristy, I'm assuming you're somewhere in North America since you're calling jelly " jello " , but if you have and Indian or Pakistani grocery shops near you they might have some. There is a brand of jelly crystals from Pakistan that taste just like I remember " real " jelly used to and isn't as " solid " as agar. The texture is just like " real " jelly. Lots of flavours to choose from and it sets quite quickly. Sometimes I can even find it in health food shops. It comes in a little box. Good luck in your search, Jo. _______________ Protect your inbox from harmful viruses with new ninemsn Premium.
