Jelly sets when pectin either present in the fruit or added is heated.

Pectin is a natural product found in the cell wall of plants. Pectin, when heated is a great thickening, and jelling agent. Pectin can be purchased in powder or liquid form.

How do you make multicoloured jelly?

You make up the mixture for the first colour that you want the jelly to be, and pour a layer of it into the required container. You leave this to set completely, then make up the colour of jelly that you want the next layer to be. Pour a layer of this jelly on top of the first layer of jelly that has now set. Allow to set again. (Now 2 layers of jelly). Repeat with all required colours. The main issue with this is that jelly takes a long time to set - 3-5 hours per layer, depending on how thick the layers are and how quickly you can cool the jelly down. For an interesting effect, tilt the container which you're setting the jelly in, for diagonal layers of jelly. (Do the final layer untilted, otherwise there will be an uneven base for the jelly to be turned out onto).
