Jelly glass


I don't mean jelly glasses as in glasses for jelly, but playing with jelly as you might with kiln-formed colours. These are stripes of jelly (not packet) set within hollowed-out oranges. Then cut in quarters longways. A pretty effect. You could do this with glass -- one technique being hot and the other cold. Which is easier to control or predict? I'm not sure. Another seasonal deployment of creativity. Should I be getting back to my sketchbook?

Those are amazing!

How exactly did you do these? Did you keep the rinds whole somehow and then set the jelly in them?

What kind of jelly did you use? What flavors are in there?
