A simple and refreshing homemade frozen honey jelly candy with a vibrant look and delicate jiggle, perfect for parties and quick sweet treats.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240 ml) raw or wildflower honey
  • 3 tablespoons (21 grams) powdered gelatin, unflavored
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) water, divided
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • Optional natural food coloring (e.g., beet juice or spirulina powder)
  • Optional pinch of sea salt
  • Optional few drops of vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Pour 1/4 cup (60 ml) of cold water into a small bowl and sprinkle the 3 tablespoons (21 grams) of powdered gelatin evenly over the surface. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it swells and becomes jelly-like.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup (60 ml) of water with 1 cup (240 ml) honey. Warm over low heat, stirring gently until the honey is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth (about 3-5 minutes). Do not boil.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons (30 ml) fresh lemon juice. Add a pinch of salt or a few drops of vanilla extract if desired.
  4. Stir the bloomed gelatin into the warm honey mixture until fully dissolved, ensuring no lumps remain.
  5. If using natural food coloring, mix in a few drops now to achieve the desired vibrant hue.
  6. Transfer the mixture carefully into silicone molds or a greased shallow baking dish. Tap gently to release air bubbles.
  7. Place molds or dish into the freezer for about 2-3 hours until fully set and firm to the touch.
  8. Pop the candies out of molds or cut into cubes if set in a pan. Store in an airtight container in the freezer.

Notes

Keep workspace clean and lightly oil molds or trays to make candy removal easier. Bloom gelatin properly to avoid lumps. Heat honey mixture gently to preserve flavor and gelatin integrity. Do not overfreeze to avoid brittleness. Store candies in a single layer in an airtight container, optionally separated by parchment paper to prevent sticking.
