Gelatin dissolves best in Hot or boiling water and if possible by using the double boiling method. In cold water Gelatin dissolves at a much slower pace and then reaches a point where it stops dissolving. In both cased constant stirring of the mixture is recommended.

Some of the gelatin will dissolve. How much depends on the manufacturer.

It is sometimes recommended to "soften" the gelatin in cold water before adding hot or boiling water to completely dissolve it.

Why bloom gelatin?

Blooming gelatin is just the process of soaking it in water before adding it to other ingredients - it helps the gelatin to dissolve evenly. To bloom gelatin leaves, place as many as you require in a bowl of cold water and leave for 4-5 minutes. Then remove the gelatin and place into the warm liquid which requires the gelling agent. To bloom gelatin powder, pour the gelatin onto the surface of a small cup of warm water. DO NOT STIR YET! Leave it for 5 minutes to soak and soften, then stir the liquid to combine the gelatin. (The purpose of not stirring immediately is because this can form lumps.)
