To make this recipe, you will also need heart-shaped silicone molds. You can find these at any baking supply store or online. Now, let's get started on making these spooky and delicious jelly hearts!
In a small bowl, mix together the gelatin and water. Let it sit for 5 minutes to allow the gelatin to bloom. In a saucepan, combine the sugar and flavored gelatin with 1 cup of hot water. Heat over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved. Add in the bloomed gelatin mixture and stir until fully dissolved.
For a more vibrant and Halloween-themed jelly heart, add a few drops of food coloring to the mixture. You can use any color you like, but orange, purple, or green work best for this spooky treat.
Once the mixture is fully combined and smooth, pour it into the heart-shaped silicone molds. Fill each mold about 3/4 full. You can also use different sized molds for variety. Place the molds in the refrigerator and let them set for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
Once the jelly hearts are set, carefully remove them from the molds and place them on a serving platter. Now, it's time to get creative with the decorations! Use black icing to draw on spooky faces or add candy eyes to make them look like monsters. You can also add Halloween sprinkles for an extra touch of festive fun.
