You use Gelatin as a gelling agent. This is used with foods, for example to make an aspic with fish, or vegetables. To use the Gelatin you mix it with meat stock, or a consomme. The Gelatin is added to the liquid and the solid meats, or vegetables are then suspended in the liquid.
a littles gelatin helps thicken, or stabalize a sauce or other things. a lot of gelatin is to cause something to hold a molded shape like jello
gelitin is used in marshmellows,jello,they label it as pectin but really its the same thing and is used in jams marmalade and jelly.pectin again is used in ice cream sometimes too.
Most of the time Jello! But i think that synchronized swimmers mix it with hot water and use it to gell their hair so it stays in while they swim.

Some manufacturers of Gelatine, package it in little paper bags about 4 Centimetre square. Each bag contains a small amount of about 2 to 4 grams. They are called envelopes. They commonly give you a recipe for things and tell you how many envelopes of their gelatin to use in their recipe. It is a cunning little sales gimmick to encourage you to use their brand of gelatin and only use their recipes. I never buy gelatin in this 'envelope ' form because they never indicate the weight, or the volume, of gelatin in the envelopes. Buy Gelatine in small containers without envelopes. They usually sell small cardboard or plastic containers of gelatin which hold typically about 100 gram when full. always keep them sealed, because gelatin absorbs moisture from the atmosphere and becomes lumpy. When dissolving gelatin, always stir it very rapidly with a fork (not a spoon) and start stirring it instantly , before it has time to absorb water and get lumpy. If the recipe calls for gelatin and sugar; mix the sugar and gelatin together DRY first, then add the water. This will made the dissolving work better, and help avoid lumps of sticky gelatin in your finished mixture.

If using leaf gelatin it is always important to soak the gelatin in brandy or another alcohol so that the mixture is not diluted but instead has the perfect texture. To make shore that the pannacotta sets it is important to add the gelatin when you remove the mixture from the heat and leave for 2 - 3 minuets so that the gelatin completely dissolves. If you decide to use powdered gelatin only use the minimum amount of water to dissolve it in so again not to dilute the pannacotta mix. Out of these two gelatin's it is better to use leaf gelatin as it makes a better set. Lastly if these tips do not help it may wise to try a different recipe that may have a better mixture of ingredients to preform the set that you are looking for. The chef in training
I would not normally think that an ice cream cake would contain gelatin, but that would depend upon the recipe. Check the ingredients to be certain.
The most common source of gelatin is as a bi-product of making hides.
you could buy some plain gelatin and add some flavors. Creativity is the best recipe!
You should be able to use a cupcake pan to make a gelatin mold. You might want to put wax paper in the pan though or just get a gelatin mold.
You fill the mold with gelatin. If you are looking to create layers, you simply have to allow them to cool between layers. You have to pour carefully, so the warm jello doesn't create a hole in the layer below it.
Soften the gelatin (1 envelope) in a portion of the liquid used in your recipe, usually milk. Warm another portion of the liquid till it "steam Soften the gelatin (1 envelope) in a portion of the liquid used in your recipe, usually milk. Warm another portion of the liquid till it "steams" but does not boil, then dissolve COMPLETELY the gelatin mixture in the warm liquid. Add this to your ice cream recipe and finish it as usual. Keep in mind that the mix will expand more than normal as the gelatin sets, so if using an ice cream maker, only fill it half way full of the ice cream base. Enjoy! P.S. A neat variation is to use an envelope of Kool-Aid as a flavoring agent .
