Ingredients
Raspberry Mixture



Instructions
Step 1
Start by pouring cold water into a bowl and adding the gelatin.
Mix well and allow it to sit for 15 minutes to bloom.
Step 2
In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the raspberry puree and sugar.
Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it reaches a gentle boil. Once boiling, remove from heat immediately.
Step 3
After the gelatin has bloomed, microwave it for a few seconds until it becomes liquid.
Pour the liquid gelatin into the warm raspberry mixture and stir well to combine.
Step 4
Prepare a flexible mold for the dessert, ensuring it is non-stick for easy removal.
Pour the raspberry liquid into the mold, filling it to the top. Carefully transfer the mold to the refrigerator.
Let it chill for about 4 hours or until fully set. For a quicker method, you can place it in the freezer for a short time.
Step 5
Once the raspberry wreath has set, remove it from the refrigerator.
Gently run a knife along the edges of the mold to loosen it, then carefully remove the inner part to reveal the beautiful wreath.

Equipment
This is essential for easy removal after setting. Silicone molds are incredibly versatile and make the process smoother.
A thick-bottomed saucepan will help heat the raspberry puree evenly, reducing the risk of burning.
Use a whisk to mix the raspberry puree and sugar for an even consistency. It’s a small tool that makes a big difference!



You’ll need this for blooming the gelatin. Make sure it’s large enough to avoid any spills!
Variations
Faq
- What type of gelatin should I use for this recipe?
It’s recommended to use 200 Bloom gelatin for the best results, as it ensures a firm set for your wreath.
- Can I use frozen raspberries instead of fresh?
Absolutely! Frozen raspberries work perfectly for this recipe and are often more affordable than fresh fruit. Just make sure to thaw and drain excess moisture before using.
- How can I make sure my Raspberry Wreath comes out of the mold easily?
Using a flexible silicone mold will help tremendously. You can also briefly dip the bottom of the mold in warm water to help loosen it before inverting.
- Can I add other fruits to the gelatin mix?
Yes! Feel free to experiment with other berry purees like strawberries or blueberries. Just keep in mind that different fruits may alter the flavor slightly.
- What if my gelatin doesn’t dissolve properly?
Make sure to allow the gelatin to bloom fully in cold water before heating it. If it still won’t dissolve, give it a quick zap in the microwave to melt any stubborn lumps.
- Can I make this wreath ahead of time?
Definitely! This dessert keeps well in the fridge for several days, making it a great make-ahead option for parties.
