Jelly
Description
The recipe won't take much time. For the jelly, it's best to use raw raspberries mashed with sugar. You can also use cranberries, guelder-rose berries, or red currants. It's the raw berries that give a delicate pink color, while cooked jelly turns a brownish hue. For decoration, you can use various dried fruits, nuts, marshmallows, or prepare several varieties of colored jelly. Serve chilled.

Step 7
You can make a little more raspberry jelly as well, for decoration. I tried making flower shapes from this jelly and from ready-made marshmallows. The second option is easier and faster, so I went with that. However, the raspberry jelly works too.
