Yummy Jelly Boats (Recipe by Annabel Karmel)

These jelly boats are the most popular party food that I make. I usually make them using packets of fruit jelly, but you can also make them using fruit juices. Try blackcurrant, apple, grape or fresh orange juice sweetened with a little sugar. Another idea is to make lime, peach and strawberry jelly in tall glasses and set them one after the other in three layers. You end up with traffic light jelly.

Ingredients:

2 large oranges
1 x 11.7g (approx 1 tablespoon) sachet gelatine
500ml fruit juice
1 sheet of rice paper

Peach and Apricot Cottage Cheesecake (Recipe by Annabel Karmel)

This cake is simple to make, uses no cream, requires no baking and looks very impressive (what more could you want!). A lovely cake to make for a special tea party. It also freezes very well so that you can make it in advance.
