Jujups are not a very traditional Christmas sweet but nonetheless they are made in most Catholic homes during the festival. Your kids will love them!

Ingredients:
50 gms gelatine
200 gms sugar
Food colouring of your choice
Method:
Soak the gelatine.
Boil sugar and 3 cups of water until it becomes a sticky syrup and about 2/3 the liquid you started with.
Add in the soaked gelatine without the water and boil.
Put in the colouring.
Boil for 15 minutes or so and pour into a dish.
Put it in the refrigerator and let it set.
Cut into cubes. Then roll the sticky cubes in crystal white sugar.
Cooking Time: 15 minutes
Rosette's Special Tip: If you are in a hurry, put the dish in the freezer so it forms faster. But don't leave for too long as it will freeze and get ruined. |
