And you'll be tickled to know that I used a Brown Brothers' moscato for this recipe!<br /><br /><b>Hey Joey,</b> haha! Sorry to confuse you there =) I just meant that we were firmly into party season even prior to Christmas =p<br /><br /><b>Hey Sophia,</b> haven't heard from you for a while! Hope you've been well and that your exam stress is now out of the way. Can I entice you to berry red jellies jazzed up for adults? =D<br /><br /><b>Hey Ladybird,</b> they're really easy so please give them a try. Are you back from your travels already?<br /><br /><b>Hey Trissa,</b> I know gelatine leaves need to be soaked and squeezed but not sure about the 'blooming' part. Like I said, never used any gelatine before!<br /><br />Enjoy the fireworks and I hope you see in the new year surrounded by lots of happy people like yourself =)<br /><br /><b>Hey Chris,</b> thanks for dropping by and thanks again for sharing this recipe! I've loved Ribena since my childhood and thought it'd make a good substitute for the crème de cassis. Can't wait to make these again =)<br /><br /><b>Hey Conor,</b> 'blooming' does conjure up those sorts of images, doesn't it? The gelatine doesn't exactly grow, but I suppose it kind of 'develops'.<br /><br />Those fresh summer rolls were delish and were made by a Vietnamese friend.

Allowing gelatine to bloom is important, as otherwise it doesn't dissolve evenly - I sprinkle it gradually over a wide bowl of cold water (100ml to the 2tbsp)until it all turns translucent =) I made another batch for tomorrow NYE!Chrishttp://blogs.thewayitcrumbles.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1848781013603271056.post-41968204015082735832009-12-30T19:47:49.790+11:002009-12-30T19:47:49.790+11:00I always assumed that allowing gelatine to bloom w...I always assumed that allowing gelatine to bloom was for gelatine sheets... is it also for powdered?
