- Hello friends!
In this video I will show you how to make this incredible jello island cake!
The idea is not mine, but I will share with you how I made this cake.
Jello recipe I used:
350 g of cold water
70 g of gelatin
4 cups of water
1 1/2 cups of sugar.
Mix 350 g of cold water and 70 g of gelatin. Bring 4 cups of water and 1 1/2 cups of sugar to boil. Let the mixture to cool down to 120 F (50 C). Add a little bit of blue food coloring, then add dissolved gelatin mixture.
NOTE: If you need to transport this cake or to keep out of the fridge for a while, I would recommend to increase the amount of gelatin to make the cake more stable.
Hope, you will find this tutorial useful; and it will inspire you for beautiful sweet creations!

This is definitely one of the best jelly island cakes I’ve seen online. I love it. Thank you for sharing your wonderful, artistic skills.
Thank you so much for your kind comment! I really appreciate it! It inspires me to make more of interesting and fun CZcams tutorials! ❤️❤️❤️
A very beautiful cake, I also make such biscuits and mousse ones)
I’ve just watch your video.
beautiful cake! ❤️❤️
I love your idea with greenery and chocolate mountain 🏔 🤗
I love this! It just turned out so pretty!
Thank you so much! 💕💕💕
I’m so happy you liked it! ❤️❤️❤️
The texture looks cool
Thank you! 🥰🥰🥰
Wow 👌
❤️❤️❤️
I am absolutely in love with this cake of yours. The whimsy just makes it so magical and you make it look a lot easier than I could have. Fantastic job :)
Thank you so much for your kind words!
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
It's beautiful! I read on another blog that it's not recommended that you eat the jello. What are your thoughts? Is this cake actually meant for eating or does it just look really cool? I want to make it for my daughters bday but need to know if I should have another cake for actually eating. Thanks.
The gello is absolutely edible. Personally, I didn’t like it, because it has more gelatin than I prefer, but my husband loved it. I think of gello as a decoration, but if people like its taste, it’s great!
I would make this cake for children birthday party. This cake is fun, beautiful, and, if some kids won’t like the taste of gello, there is a cake as well ☺️
you can also make some cupcakes, cake pops or cookies, so everybody would have a dessert they love ❤️
Gelatine is absolutely edible, why wouldn't it be? It's just that if you use pure water without flavoring, it's tasteless. Why not use Pepsi Blue, or coconut water? Or flavored (vanilla) jello package?
Beautiful work
Thank you! :)
Muy hermoso! Me encantó!!😃
Te ganaste una suscriptora. 👍😍
Thank you so much!
Easy to learn 👍 thank you
My pleasure! I’m very happy you liked the video! ❤️🤗
Can u pls tell me which ingredient u r using to make that star fish shells and all?
Absolutely! I used modeling chocolate to make cake toppers. However, if you have silicon molds, melted chocolate or candy melts will work great too.
I don't have cocoa butter but I still want to use modelling chocolate. What do you recommend? (I want to make the cake today and it will be served tomorrow) will it melt until then?
No worries! I think it will be fine.
The pieces might melt just a little bit (not much at all). It won’t ruin the look of the cake.
This is beautiful 😻
Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
How long dose the gelo last at standing room temperature thank you
I don't know for sure, but it's pretty stable.
My cake was standing on the table for an hour or so before we sliced it, and it was perfectly fine at that time.
If you need the cake to be more stable, add a little bit more gelatin and make sure it is set completely before taking out the cake collar.

Thank you!
What did you use for decorations? Where did you get the acetate sheet? Did it come in a roll? Thank you
I used modeling chocolate for cake toppers. If you have silicon molds, melted white chocolate or candy melts will work great as well.
I used cake collar to wrap a cake. You can buy it from Amazon. It comes in rolls, and have different size options.
Can I use white melted chocolate instead of white food colouring over the ganache?
Absolutely! White chocolate will work great.

Thank you! I made chocolate cake using this recipe czcams.com/video/_v2LKBFSnfM/video.html
250g of butter
350 g of sugar (but I would recommend to use about 200 g)
250 g of eggs
200 g of dark chocolate
1.5 tsp of vanilla extract
140 g of flour.
The cake is very chocolaty and dense, its texture is similar to brownies. That makes it very easy to curve the mountain. However, any butter based cake recipe will work great!
so pretty and clean finish. i want to know your base island cake, is it chocolate bundant cake? thank you 🙏

How to do the choc topper?
Can we use agar agar powder instead of gelatine?
Unfortunately, I’ve never tried to use agar-agar for this cake, so I can’t tell if the gello turns out fine with it.
For the toppers you can use modeling chocolate as I did. It’s possible to buy it, but it’s very easy to make it. It has only white chocolate and corn syrup. There’s many videos on CZcams of how to make modeling chocolate.
Another option is to use melted chocolate or candy melts. You just need to pour melted chocolate or candy melts into silicon molds and let them set before taking out of the molds.
Do you have recipe of modelling Chocolate ?? Please share the link if yes ... Thank u I just loved it want to give it a try for promoting my cake business .... ❤️
Tisha salma absolutely! I use 2 cups of chocolate to 1 cup of corn syrup.
This is a great video about modeling chocolate czcams.com/video/DhuY9R6-14Q/video.html
Good luck with your cake business! Hope this video was informative and these techniques will be very helpful in your career 🤗
Supermarket doesn’t have cocoa butter. Maybe coconut oil or let jello cool? Yes or no?
It’s a great question!
Unfortunately, coconut oil or cold jelly will not work. 😞
If you have molds, you can use regular white chocolate (or candy melts). Just pour melted chocolate into the mold, and let it set.
Modeling chocolate will work great as well (it is pretty easy to make it. It consists of only 2 ingredients - white chocolate and corn syrup).
Lovely cake .if I make fondant figures how do put it coz wont the gelatine melt it ?
Thank you! 🥰🥰
Fondant will definitely melt.
You can try to coat it with cocoa butter before assembling the cake, but I’m not sure if this gonna work very well.
@@cheshirebakery5312 can i use chocolate figurines?
Absolutely! Melted chocolate, candy melts, or modeling chocolate work well with jello.
Beautiful cake.
When gelitin mixture will be poured on cake shoud the mixture remain cold?
The mixture should be warm (not too hot because it will melt ganache; and not too cold because it will start to set).
The temperature should be approximately 25 - 30 C.
@@cheshirebakery5312 Many many thanks.
Good video
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it!
Flat earthers : Wait, it's all cake?
Cake earthers : Always had been
So beautiful!!
Can you show me how to make cake toppers, please? What materials make it?
Thanks
Thank you so much! I’m happy you like the video!
I showed how I made cake toppers at 4:21.
For this cake you can use melted chocolate or modeling chocolate.
Unfortunately, fondant won’t work with jello cakes.
Sorry, what material you made cake toppers?
@@HoThiCamNhung_A I used modeling chocolate for the toppers.
Pls help why does my fondant figures melt inside the gelatin?
Unfortunately, fondant doesn’t work for this cake 😞
You can use modeling chocolate or candy mets to make toppers. I used modeling chocolate, and it works well with a gello.
@@cheshirebakery5312 thankyou💕
Can i use sugar paste instead of modeling chocolate?
unfortunately, sugar paste will melt in jello.
@@cheshirebakery5312 okay thanku
With a bandaid on your finger you're doing this!!! YUK!
Will buttercream work instead of ganache?
I didn’t try to make this cake with buttercream, but I’m pretty sure it will work great 👍
Cheshire Bakery thank you!! I'll give it a try. Love how yours turned out! Beautiful 🥰
@@shamandrajenkins5550 Thank you very much! :)
I do not like that smell of gelatin ...what else can be used or how to get off with that smell pls. Let me know
You are absolutely right: gelatin doesn't smell good. I don't know for sure how to get rid of the smell, but you can try to add some vanilla or lemon extract. They might make the gelatin aroma less intense.
I love it very much😍😍😍 may i know what’s material for the aquatic?
Thank you very much for your kind words 🙏 ❤️
I used jello for the ocean effect.
I enclosed the recipe in the description to this video.
@@cheshirebakery5312would it be possible to use storebought jello, maybe doubling the gelatin to water ration to achieve extra firmness? I’m just afraid of the possibility of the chocolate bits melting as you mentioned.
@@faithli2131 it’s a good question! I’ve never used store bought gello for this cake; but I afraid it won’t be firm enough or the taste might be too intense with different proportions
@@cheshirebakery5312 thanks for getting back to me!
This is so beautiful. I have one question, can I use fondant for those underwater figures?
Thank you!
Unfortunately, fondant cake toppers will melt and bleed. Fondant won’t work for this cake.
If you have fondant molds, I would recommend to use melted chocolate or candy melts instead.
Cheshire Bakery Melt chocolate you mean is melt white chocolate ?
Yes. You can use white melted chocolate for the figurines. You can color it with oil candy colors if needed.
Cheshire Bakery The chocolate won’t melt in the jello?
No, chocolate doesn’t melt.
Modeling chocolate will eventually start to melt (but it will start after a few days).
Супер! Лайк! Подписка!
Спасибо большое! ☺️☺️
Is the titanium dioxide eatable?
Yes, titanium dioxide is safe to eat.
As an alternative, you can use white food coloring.
