5. Finally, prepare the water bath to dilute the flavorless jelly. You just need 2 pots, one large and a little girl. Pour water into the largest casserole to cover 3/4 part of the smallest saucepan. Remember, water should never fall into the smallest casserole. Remove without stopping, until the gelatin looks transparent, at that time the mixture will be ready. It is important that you dissolve the gelatin without excess heat, since a very high temperature decreases its gelifying qualities. The correct hydration and dilute of the gelatin will guarantee you a kind of elastic mass and pleasant texture.
Trick: It is more advisable to use only the casserole vapor during the water bath to dissolve the flavorless jelly.
6. Add the flavorless jelly to the mixture you reserved, little by little. Pour in a thread and remove with a wooden spoon without stopping, until completely integrating the rest of the ingredients. If you notice that the gelatin does not integrate well into the mixture, you can heat the content in the water bath and remove until homogenizing everything. Use only the steam of the water bath or apply for a short time, because the excess heat harms the gelation of the mixture.

The fruit cocktail can be tropical fruits or forest fruits, according to your preference. Alternative Operation. You can also do this step as follows: you stay alone with the mixture of the milks, the punch, and the jelly. Then, go straight to the step of the mold. Pour half of the mixture into the mold and then place a layer of fruits. Finally, pour the rest of the mixture and … ready!

Then pour the final mixture into the mold and give some tap in the background. Thus the mixture distribution is paired. Refrigerate the punch gelatin cream a minimum of 2 hours, even better if you expect from one day to another.
Trick: Oil serves to unmold the gelatin better. This process does not alter the final dessert taste.
9. Prepare the forest fruits sauce. Place a saucepan with the sugar and orange juice, heat it medium-high heat and wait until it boils. Move frequently and when it reaches its boiling point, boil for 5 more minutes and remove from time to time. Then add the 4 cups of fruits of the forest and heat until they boil. Wait for 5 to 8 minutes or until they burst the fruits and thickens the mixture. Remove constantly. Once the sauce is ready, let at room temperature, strain, cover and reserve in the refrigerator for 3 hours.
10. To decorate! Take out the refrigerator jelly, let stand for a while at room temperature and unmold carefully. If you use a removable mold you will not have problems with the jelly walls. However, for the bottom or the background I recommend you give small taps before unmolding. Then, place a large plate or tray on the mold and turn. Clever! Adorns with 1 cup of fresh fruits and spray the sauce on them. The final touch? Stockhide leaves.
