Ingredients
- 7 cups water, divided
- 3 boxes flavored gelatin (3 ounces each, different flavors and colors)
- 1 ounce unflavored gelatin (4 envelopes of 0.25 ounces each)
- 1 cup half and half
- 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
- 12 ounces evaporated milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
- Heat 1 cup of water for each flavored gelatin until hot.
- Pour the hot water into separate bowls and dissolve one box of flavored gelatin in each bowl.
- Add 1/2 cup cold water to each mixture and stir well.
- Pour each gelatin mixture into separate containers and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until fully set.
- Remove the firm gelatin from the containers and cut into 1-inch cubes.
- In a small bowl, combine the unflavored gelatin with 1 cup cold water and let it sit for 10 minutes to bloom.
- In a blender, combine half and half, sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth.
- Heat the bloomed gelatin in the microwave for 30–40 seconds until liquid.
- Add the melted gelatin to the blender and blend briefly to combine.
- Lightly coat a bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- Pour a thin layer of milk gelatin into the pan, then add a layer of colorful gelatin cubes.
- Continue alternating layers until all ingredients are used.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until completely set.
- To serve, gently loosen the edges, invert the pan onto a serving plate, and carefully release the gelatin before slicing.
Notes
- Using contrasting gelatin colors creates a more vibrant mosaic appearance.
- Prepare the gelatin cubes a day ahead for easier assembly.
- Heavy cream can replace half and half for a richer texture.
- Whole milk can be used instead of half and half for a lighter version.
- Fresh fruit such as strawberries, mango, or grapes can be added between layers.
- Individual servings can be made by assembling the gelatin in small cups.
- Run warm water briefly over the outside of the mold if the gelatin sticks when unmolding.
