You’ve heard of rainbow grilled cheese and unicorn frappuccinos.
Get ready for the next food trend: Gelatin Flowers Cakes.
Yes, this indeed has become a thing.
What Are They
They’re essentially gelatin, or jelly, with no cake involved whatsoever. I guess people call them a cake because… there’s no other word to describe them?
It’s weird. Basically, you make a clear jelly to hold your “flower” in, wait for it to harden, and then proceed to inject colours into the clear jelly.
Really, inject. There are needles involved in this DIY project.
And with a little bit of crafting magic, this should be your end result. Keyword: Should.
Boom, gelatin flower.
You’re probably thinking to yourself right now, “Oh, this sounds easy. I can do it too.” To get to that level? You’ll need practice. Lots of practice. Your first attempt at this won’t be as pretty as the one in the video.
How To Make a Gelatin Flower
The actual base of the flower is quite simple. You’ll just need to make an easy gelatin base consisting of gelatin powder, citric acid, sugar and water. The flower is a whole different story.
The title of this video may be “Simple Red Gelatin Art Flower”, but looks can be deceiving. In the 47 seconds of this video, the maker (or do you call them an artist?) inserts 3 different kinds of needles in order to achieve the simple flower.
Some other flowers may only involve one needle, but to achieve a nice looking flower with even petals is a challenge. Only experience and practice will produce such a result.
