Same mold as Katie's - I threw mine out  :-))   Lovely Cookie, I can't wait to try this myself.  I know my Mum will love it as much as the grandkids.  I do have a silicone mold I've never used so hopefully that will work.

Looks great Cookie! Thanks again for telling us all about this.

I used about 20grams of gelatine in my milk jelly.

I spent ages trying to work out what an envelope of Knox's gelatine weighted. I was keeping my fingers crossed that it would set.

This comment was made in one of the comments on that blog Cookie.

@AnneTagonist According to David Lebovitz's blog post about gelatin, one envelope of Knox unflavored gelatin is: "One envelope of powdered gelatin (about 1/4 ounce) is about 2 1/4 to 2 1/2 teaspoons" Here is his post: http://www.davidlebovitz.com/2009/04/how-to-use-gelatin/

Thanks Judy. I could have saved myself time. I only looked at the recipe. Katie's photo looked so lovely I have tried fooling around with mine to see if the colours show better. Here goes!

It looks wonderful Cookie  ;D

I didn't really know how much gelatine to add to the milk jelly either.  I tried looking around on the internet but couldn't find how much the "US envelope" held (but now I know thanks to Judy  :D).  

I ended up finding "Not Quite Nigella's" recipe which used 3.5 titanium gelatin sheets.  I knew a titanium sheet was equivalent to 5 grams of gelatine powder, so I was being very scientific and was going to use 17.5 grams (3.5 x 5) of gelatine.  When I made it though I slipped and tipped in a bit more, oops.  I too had my fingers crossed that it would set.
