Instructions
Raspberry Jelly
- Dissolve the jelly crystals in hot water and stir in cold water. Refrigerate until half set.
- It takes around 1- 2hrs. You need to check it repeatedly.
Vanilla Sponge Cake

Cake Assembly
- Cut the cake into three long slices. Spread the cream on the top of one slice and place the second slice of the cake (without cream) on it. Cut these sandwiched cake slice into squares.
- Similarly, cut the third slice in half. Spread the cream on the half portion and sandwich the other half portion without cream. Cut into squares.

Notes
- The right consistency of jelly should be thickened and viscous like egg whites.
- Jelly cakes do not stay longer than 2-3 days due to cream and jelly content. I strongly recommend consuming the same day it's been prepared.
- To save time, prepare the cake a day before, make a cream and jelly and also assemble the cake as you required it.
- I suggest you cut the cake into four equal parts. It will be easier to sandwich two layers with the other two.
