Fruit spread made from juice (jelly):

For the preparation of jelly, we recommend using our Gelling Sugar for Jelly, which was developed especially for this purpose. If you prefer your jelly less sweet, you can also use 3:1 Gelling Sugar to prepare a fruit spread from juice. To do so, you proceed as follows:

Basic recipe for fruit spread made from juice (jelly):
  1. Steam-juice the fruit without adding sugar or boil with water and drain the juice through a cloth.
  2. Bring 1200 ml of cold fruit juice and 500g Diamant Gelling Sugar 3:1 to boil, while stirring continuously.
  3. Boil the fruits and sugar over high temperature for 4 minutes, stirring continuously.
  4. Pour the hot jelly into jars and seal immediately using screw caps.

It is not advisable to multiply the stated quantities of ingredients. The fruit spreads keep for a long time but may change colour. Store the jars in a cool, dark place. Keep in the refrigerator once opened.
