Origin story
Some scientists believe that the appearance of jelly can be dated back to the 16th and 17th centuries. According to ancient records, there was a certain white substance whose viscosity resembled glue. This substance was extracted from the air bladders of sturgeon. Jelly, as we see it now, appeared in 1845.
According to the available technology, jelly was made from waste from meat plants: cartilage, skin, bones and much more were sent for processing. Already in 1985, a certain Perp Way from the USA decided to improve the dry mixture by adding flavoring and dye. This innovation made it possible to prepare jelly with a pleasant berry smell and corresponding color. Eventually, Way decides to sell the patent for $450. The next owner was unable to make a profit from this business and spent a long time racking his brains on how to sell this business.
However, at the beginning of the twentieth century, everything changed dramatically. Gelatin has become more or less in demand; local media even began to advertise it. A hotline was developed that people could call if they had any questions about the jelly.
By the mid-sixties, the popularity of jelly began to decline sharply, but in 1987 the situation stabilized as soon as berry blancmange cupcakes appeared on sale. Also, jelly to which a certain amount of alcohol was added became very popular among men. And even Bill Clinton himself was partial to cherry dessert.
Making jelly according to the classic recipe
Typically, jelly is made from fresh or frozen fruits, which are filled with berry juice or syrup, then a certain amount of gelatin is added. The main thing in preparing jelly is not to overdo it with gelling substances, as they can give the jelly a specific taste. There are many recipes for making jelly. Some recipes use natural gelling agents, such as agar-agar and pectin. Unlike the gelatin we are used to, these substances do not give a specific taste, but harden even better.

Subtleties of preparing French dessert
It should be taken into account that when using a large amount of the gelling agent pectin, the transparency of the jelly decreases and it becomes cloudy in color. Agar-agar has different gelling properties; you need to read the specifics on the packaging or ask the manufacturer. As mentioned above, there are many recipes for preparing this delicious dish. To obtain a unique taste and aroma, some professionals add very little alcohol. Lemon juice also perfectly accentuates the taste of jelly. Before serving the dessert, it is cooled, decorated with various fruits and berries, and sometimes ice cream is added. Never use a metal or aluminum bowl, only plastic ones, otherwise the gelatin will stick to the bowl. Before pouring boiling water over the gelatin, it should be slightly heated, then you will get a clean jelly without lumps.

Features of preparing sour cream jelly
To prepare a good dessert (sour cream), it’s not enough just to follow the recipe for sour cream jelly. You should know several subtleties of the dish, which we will now tell you about.
- The less fatty the sour cream, the better it will whip. This means that store-bought sour cream is much better suited for the dish than homemade.
- To ensure that the products are well mixed and the sugar is completely dissolved, it is necessary to use components at room temperature. Therefore, if you plan to prepare a classic jelly dessert from jelly and sour cream, remove everything you need from the refrigerator in advance.
- Whip the sour cream with a whisk, then you will get a fluffy mass reminiscent of a soufflé. It is ideal to use a mixer or blender. Unfortunately, working with a fork or stirring with a spoon will not provide a decent result.
- Be sure to prepare gelatin for jelly with sour cream. The recipe excludes the possibility of simply pouring the powder into the mass, otherwise it will not harden. The correct technique for working with gelatin is to soak the powder in cold water until it swells (the required volume of liquid is always indicated by the manufacturer on the packaging). When the lumps increase in size by about 3-4 times, it is necessary to heat the gelatin in a water bath until completely dissolved. You can do this in the microwave, only setting the minimum time, for example, starting with 15 seconds, and stirring the gelatin well each time. You cannot let it boil and leave it undissolved, since in each case it will not thicken the mass.
- If you are preparing sour cream jelly with fruit, remove the crusts and seeds from the latter. Almost all fruits and berries are suitable for this purpose, except for exotic kiwis and pineapples. They actively produce juice, and the mass will turn out watery. By the way, for fruit dessert you can use not only fresh, but also frozen ingredients.
Recipe “Sour cream jelly” and more
Do you want to combine business with pleasure? There is an exit! A delicious dessert called jelly that will please everyone - both children and adults!
Jelly is an incredibly tasty dessert, which also has several bonuses for chefs: ease of preparation, cheap price and very low calorie content. And there is a lot of pleasure when eating. Therefore, we believe that every housewife should adopt a couple of jelly recipes that we offer. The “Sour cream jelly” recipe has a rather specific taste and is often used as a filling for the legendary “Bird’s Milk” cake. How to make jelly with sour cream? The recipe for this dish confirms the phrase “everything ingenious is simple.” The ingredients you will need are as follows
- 1 packet of vanilla sugar;
- 400 gr. sour cream;
- 1 tbsp. a spoonful of instant gelatin;
- 5-6 tablespoons of sugar;
- 50 ml water.
First, we process the gelatin. To do this, you need to put it in a plate, soak it in warm boiled water (the amount of water is determined as follows: gelatin should “drown” in the moisture).
Place sour cream in a separate plate. Make sure it is not greasy. Add granulated sugar and add a packet of vanilla sugar. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. Beat in a blender.
Gelatin needs to be heated. To do this, use either a microwave oven or place the gelatin on the stove. It must completely dissolve under high temperature.
Then we combine the two resulting liquids: sour cream and gelatin. Mix thoroughly. Place the jelly in the refrigerator to cool and set.
You can use this recipe anytime. Sour cream jelly can be eaten as a dessert if you add sugar, and as a base for a jellied dish if you add salt. The “Sour cream jelly” recipe that we presented to you is not the only one of its kind. There are other ways to prepare this dish. We will tell you another amazing recipe.
Sour cream jelly can also be prepared with cocoa based on the following set of products:
- 600 grams of sour cream;
- gelatin – 1 sachet;
- 150 grams of sugar;
- 1 tablespoon cocoa.
As you can see, this recipe differs from the previous recipe only in the presence of cocoa in its composition. The preparation method is similar to the previous recipe; we add cocoa to the sour cream at the initial stage. By the way, you can alternate layers. For example, one layer can be white - sour cream jelly, the second layer - brown - with cocoa. It will look very beautiful and unusual. The layers must be poured one by one. First pour one and let it harden, then pour the second one and put it in the refrigerator again to harden. The third one is exactly the same.
If you want to cook an unusual dish, then this recipe is ideal for you. Sour cream jelly with white wine is made like this: all the ingredients are the same, but instead of water, add white wine to the mixture. This jelly is popularly called drunken.
In addition, the ingredients for jelly can be very different. Fruit juices are perfect for jelly: oranges, lemons, kiwis... But we thought banana jelly was the most original. It is prepared from the following products (the quantity is calculated for servings for 6 people):
- gelatin - 25 grams;
- sugar - 75 grams;
- banana essence - 1/2 teaspoon;
- condensed milk without sugar - 175 milliliters;
- yellow food coloring, bananas.
We prepare jelly by analogy with previous recipes. We cut fruits - bananas, place them on the bottom of the mold for filling in an even layer. Then pour the jelly into this mold. This will give you banana jelly with fruit.
If you don’t want to pour fruit, then you don’t have to do this - the jelly will already have a banana taste thanks to banana essence, but many note that it becomes more tasty with fruit. This dish can be served with ice cream.
Secrets of making jelly in layers
How to make sour cream jelly in layers? There are 2 techniques.
- Laying the liquid mass. Place a couple of spoonfuls of the first layer into the mold, focusing in the center. Then a layer of a different color is placed on top, also exactly in the center. Each subsequent layer of multi-colored jelly with sour cream makes the previous one spread over the form. In this case, a characteristic pattern is formed without clear lines - the layers are smooth and seem to flow into each other. In this way you can prepare jelly from sour cream and cocoa.
- Laying on a thickened layer. In this case, each layer is kept in the refrigerator until it hardens, and only then the next one is laid. The preferred method is for puff sour cream and strawberry jelly and for any fruit dessert, as it allows you to preserve the location of pieces of fruit or berries.
Jelly from cottage cheese and sour cream
Our latest version of a dessert made from jelly and sour cream is protein-rich, thanks to the cottage cheese in the composition. Cottage cheese should be taken in the form of low-fat curd mass and mixed with sour cream. At the same time, reduce the amount of sour cream in proportion to the amount of cottage cheese. My favorite option is 200 grams of sour cream and 150 grams of cottage cheese. Do not forget that the recipe should not contain more than 350 grams of milk filler, otherwise the portion of gelatin indicated in the recipe will not cope and will not thicken.
Calorie content per 100 grams of this dessert option is 62 kcal
,
1.4 grams of carbohydrates
and 7 grams of protein.
Sour cream jelly is a universal dessert; it can be offered to those with an ardent sweet tooth, to lovers of healthy eating, and to small children. I make jelly from sour cream on gelatin, it’s very tasty! In appearance and structure, sour cream jelly on gelatin is more reminiscent of a soufflé, as it turns out airy and porous.
Calorie content can be adjusted by using sour cream with more or less fat content. Similarly with the amount of sugar: fans of a healthy lifestyle will use a sweetener; for a moderately sweet taste in the recipe it is better to use 2 tablespoons of sugar, and for a sweet treat it is better to take 4 tablespoons.
In our family, I often prepare sour cream jelly in the evening so that I can enjoy a delicious breakfast in the morning. And I definitely use some kind of berry or fruit filling for jelly. It seems that we have already tried all the options for additives, and of all of them, desserts with bananas, fresh strawberries or apricots (without peel) have taken root most of all, and in winter I simply add 2/3 cup of any seedless jam.

A simple and delicious dessert - the perfect end to a lunch meal. In order not to overload the body with flour products, we suggest preparing a small portion of jelly from sour cream and cocoa as a sweet dish. This cute dessert has a very delicate texture and pleasant taste, a little reminiscent of the popular Italian one.
For the recipe, we recommend giving preference to sour cream with a low fat content so that the dessert does not turn out heavy and high in calories. You can form sour cream jelly with cocoa according to the “zebra” principle (as in our example), or you can simply lay out the mass in regular layers without any decoration.
Ingredients per 1 serving:
- sour cream (10-15%) - 250 g;
- powdered gelatin - 6 g (1 teaspoon);
- boiled water - 4 tbsp. spoons;
- cocoa powder - 1 tbsp. spoon;
- powdered sugar - 4-5 tbsp. spoons (or to taste).
How to make sour cream jelly with cocoa
- Pour the gelatin into a convenient bowl and fill it with cold boiled water. Mix and leave to swell. This may take from 5 to 60 minutes (the exact time should be indicated in the instructions on the package).
- Immediately combine the entire amount of sour cream with powdered sugar, the dosage of which can be increased/decreased depending on taste preferences. Mix vigorously.
- We heat the swollen gelatin in any convenient way to completely dissolve it. You can place the container with the gelatin mass in a bowl of hot water, in a “water bath,” or put it in the microwave. The main thing is not to boil the gelatin, otherwise it will lose its properties and our jelly will not harden! Pour the liquid gelatin mass into the sour cream and mix.
- Place about half of the sour cream in another container and mix with cocoa powder. We achieve uniform coloring of the mass in a light chocolate shade.
- We take transparent bowls or other containers. Pour 1-2 tbsp to the bottom. spoons of chocolate mass, and apply the same portion of light cream on top.
- Thus, alternating layers of contrasting shades, we fill the container. In this recipe, the ingredients are for 1 large or 2 small bowls. If necessary, you can increase the proportions of the products depending on the number of servings you want to receive.
- To make the sour cream and cocoa jelly look most attractive, let’s make a simple pattern. We take a regular toothpick and draw straight lines with its tip from the middle of the dessert to the edge. As a result, we get a kind of “cobweb”.
- Place the bowls on the refrigerator shelf so that the sour cream and cocoa jelly is completely frozen. The time can vary from 1 hour to 3-4 (depending on the quality of gelatin and the size of the container used). To speed up the process, you can put the dessert in the freezer for 15-20 minutes. Just in this case, do not forget to periodically look into the freezer, otherwise the jelly may simply freeze!
As soon as the mass hardens, remove the dessert from the refrigerator/freezer and begin tasting. Sour cream jelly with cocoa will delight you with its delicate consistency and moderately sweet, refreshing taste. Bon appetit!
The history of jelly goes back several centuries, although it was only used in food in large quantities at the beginning of the 20th century. Previously, gelatin was obtained from boiled leftover meat products. Only by the end of the 19th century was its production put on a “big scale”: they began to make delicious desserts from it, one of which was sour cream jelly. The popularity of the dish was facilitated by bright advertising with photos of famous actresses. Today, various types of this sweet are present on the most exquisite holiday tables.
Unusual and very similar to the ice cream we loved since childhood is a delicacy made with sour cream. Let's talk about how you can prepare it.

To prepare sour cream jelly, add gelatin to a glass of warm water. Place sugar in sour cream and stir thoroughly so that no grains remain. Then combine both prepared mixtures and mix thoroughly. All components of the dish should be at room temperature. Pour the mixture into molds and place in the refrigerator to harden.

Gelatin should be poured with water, sour cream should be mixed with sugar, then both mixtures should be combined. Peel, wash and cut the strawberries into pieces. Place strawberries and sour cream in a cup in alternating layers.
This recipe is not difficult to prepare, but it can easily replace store-bought ice cream in the summer heat. Its big advantage is its exclusively natural ingredients.

To prepare this recipe, you will need to take:
- 0.25 kg each of cottage cheese and sour cream;
- 0.1 kg sugar;
- a glass of milk;

Features of preparing sour cream jelly
The recipe for this sour cream jelly is simple and accessible to any housewife. This dish looks festive and elegant in any situation, as seen in the photo. However, to prepare a truly delicious dessert, follow these rules:
- take low-fat sour cream, preferably store-bought;
- take food only at room temperature;
- mix the sour cream only with a whisk or blender (mixer): they will make the mass fluffy and airy;
- be sure to soak the gelatin in water before adding it to the sour cream;

Sour cream jelly in the form of figures or served in beautiful glasses will become the highlight of a children's holiday program and will delight little guests.
Recipes for sour cream jelly are very simple, you can experiment with it endlessly - it all depends only on the taste preferences of a particular family.
How to make jelly from sour cream and gelatin
Pour water into a small ladle and pour gelatin into it (never pour gelatin with water, otherwise it may stick together and then you will have to strain it to avoid poorly dissolved grains getting into the jelly). Leave the gelatin to swell for 40 minutes.
Place the swollen gelatin, similar to a translucent porridge, to heat over low heat. Stirring with a spoon or spatula, heat the mixture until the gelatin is completely dissolved. Try not to heat the mixture above a temperature of 50 degrees, remembering that it is undesirable to boil gelatin. Yes, gelatin has been on sale for a long time now, and boiling does nothing to it, but if you accidentally come across gelatin made using old technologies, then after boiling it will lose its gelling properties. Remove the prepared solution from the heat and let it cool slightly.
Now let's make sour cream. If you have powdered sugar, then the process of mixing it with sour cream will take a minute or two. But regular sugar can also be mixed with sour cream so that it completely dissolves. You just have to stir for about five to seven minutes. Stir with a spoon, because with a broom you can accidentally beat the sour cream so that it separates into fractions. Our plans do not include such options.
Add vanilla essence or vanillin to taste. I usually add 2-3 drops of essence. Vanilla sugar will give the dessert a “sealing” taste.
Mix well again.
Take a whisk in your hands. Pour gelatin dissolved in water in a thin stream and constantly mix sour cream with sugar and vanilla.
You will end up with a fairly liquid, homogeneous mixture. Try to mix quickly so that there are no gelatin lumps left in the jelly. If, however, lumps appear, just pass the mixture through a fine strainer and everything will be fine.
If you have difficulty removing the jelly from the molds, the jelly molds can be lightly greased with odorless vegetable oil - then the jelly will slip out of them very easily.
Pour the sour cream and gelatin mixture into the molds, carefully filling them almost to the brim. It is more convenient to pour the jelly with a ladle - nothing will spill or drip.
Place the molds with the future jelly in the refrigerator for 5 hours until completely hardened (in some refrigerators the jelly can harden in half an hour, so check the readiness).
Now you need to remove the finished jelly from the mold and place it on a plate without damaging the topography of the dessert. There is a simple and effective way: lower the jelly mold into a plate of very hot water for 30 seconds, then remove the mold and quickly turn the jelly onto a plate.
Decorate the finished sour cream jelly as desired, for example, with berries, biscuit crumbs or chocolate. Bon appetit!
Dilution of gelatin
There are several ways to dilute gelatin. the main objective
– achieve a homogeneous solution, without lumps. You can follow the instructions indicated by the manufacturer on the package, but there is one universal method for all types of instant gelatin.
A couple of hours before cooking, it is soaked in a glass of cool water, then placed in a small bowl or pan, and in a water bath in hot (not boiling) water, with continuous stirring, it is brought to the state of a transparent viscous liquid. This is the only way to achieve maximum homogeneity and the absence of even the slightest grains.
Hot gelatin cannot be added to sour cream; it is better to wait 7-10 minutes until it cools slightly.

- Pour the gelatin into a convenient bowl and fill it with cold boiled water. Mix and leave to swell. This may take from 5 to 60 minutes (the exact time should be indicated in the instructions on the package).
- Immediately combine the entire amount of sour cream with powdered sugar, the dosage of which can be increased/decreased depending on taste preferences. Mix vigorously.
- We heat the swollen gelatin in any convenient way to completely dissolve it. You can place the container with the gelatin mass in a bowl of hot water, in a “water bath,” or put it in the microwave. The main thing is not to boil the gelatin, otherwise it will lose its properties and our jelly will not harden! Pour the liquid gelatin mass into the sour cream and mix.
- Place about half of the sour cream in another container and mix with cocoa powder. We achieve uniform coloring of the mass in a light chocolate shade.
- We take transparent bowls or other containers. Pour 1-2 tbsp to the bottom. spoons of chocolate mass, and apply the same portion of light cream on top.
- Thus, alternating layers of contrasting shades, we fill the container. In this recipe, the ingredients are for 1 large or 2 small bowls. If necessary, you can increase the proportions of the products depending on the number of servings you want to receive.
- To make the sour cream and cocoa jelly look most attractive, let’s make a simple pattern. We take a regular toothpick and draw straight lines with its tip from the middle of the dessert to the edge. As a result, we get a kind of “cobweb”.
- Place the bowls on the refrigerator shelf so that the sour cream and cocoa jelly is completely frozen. The time can vary from 1 hour to 3-4 (depending on the quality of gelatin and the size of the container used). To speed up the process, you can put the dessert in the freezer for 15-20 minutes. Just in this case, do not forget to periodically look into the freezer, otherwise the jelly may simply freeze!
