Jelly art—also called gelatin art or 3D jelly cake art—creates flowers inside a clear jelly base. Set the clear base first, then inject a colored mixture with a food-use syringe and shape petals with a petal tip. Keep the colored mixture warm and workable as you decorate, then chill the finished design until firm.
What you need to make jelly art
- A clear jelly base and a colored jelly mixture made with one recipe’s specified gelling agent and ratios.
- A food-use syringe to inject the colored mixture into the base.
- A petal-shaped decorating tool; leaf tools are useful for adding foliage.
- A mould and cups for holding portions of colored mixture. Keep the cups warm during decorating so the mixture stays workable.
For a first project, try a single flower in a set base rather than a large layered cake. Gelatin Art Market separates beginner instruction into clear base, color base, tools, and containers, and describes round-cake assembly as advanced and worth practicing before attempting.

Choose one recipe and gelling method
Recipes use different gelling systems and proportions, so do not combine quantities from separate recipes. One published vegan example from SBS Food, by Siew Heng Boon, uses kappa carrageenan. Its clear base calls for 12 g kappa carrageenan, 350 g sugar, 1.7 litres water, and rosewater. The recipe says agar can replace the carrageenan in equal quantity; that substitution applies to this recipe, not automatically to every jelly formula.
Other examples use jelly powder or gelatin and have different proportions. Decide which recipe and gelling agent you are following before buying ingredients, then use that recipe for both the clear base and colored mixture.

Make the clear base
- Bloom the carrageenan: For the SBS vegan example, sprinkle 12 g kappa carrageenan into 1.7 litres of room-temperature water while stirring. Leave it for 10 minutes.
- Heat and dissolve: Stir while heating until lumps dissolve, bring the mixture to a boil, remove surface foam, then dissolve in 350 g sugar.
- Flavor and strain: Add rosewater as directed by the recipe, then strain the mixture.
- Pour and set: Pour into a mould to about 4 cm deep. Let it cool, then refrigerate until set before decorating.
Those quantities and steps belong to the cited SBS recipe; use its full ingredient list and instructions rather than treating them as universal proportions.
Prepare the colored mixture
Make the colored mixture using the same recipe you chose for the base. In the SBS example, the color mixture uses coconut milk and water with sugar and kappa carrageenan. Divide it among cups and add food coloring. Set the cups in a bowl of hot water while you work so the mixture does not set before it can be injected.

Inject and shape the flower
- Load the syringe: Draw up a portion of colored mixture. A syringe creates the flower center and delivers color inside the clear base.
- Make the center: Inject into the base where you want the flower. The Nanyang Kitchen method uses a syringe and needle for the center.
- Shape petals: Insert the petal-shaped tool into the base at an angle and release colored mixture as you form each petal. Work around the center, building one row at a time.
- Keep working outward: Repeat the petal strokes around the flower until it reaches the size you want. If the recipe and tools include leaves, add them after the petals.
- Clean and chill: Scrape excess colored mixture from the surface, wipe it clean, and refrigerate the decorated jelly until firm. Some designs add a bottom layer after the flower; follow the instructions for your chosen design.
The Nanyang Kitchen example also emphasizes keeping the colored mixture warm while decorating. If it begins to set, it becomes harder to inject and shape cleanly.
Plan your first attempt and handle it safely
The SBS recipe estimates one hour of preparation, ten minutes of cooking, and two hours of chilling, plus chilling after decoration. Treat these as that recipe’s estimates, not a guarantee: setting time and decorating time depend on the design and conditions.

The cited recipe says to refrigerate the base and finished jelly, but does not establish a validated storage duration. Do not assume a specific number of days. For general power-outage guidance, FoodSafety.gov advises discarding refrigerated perishables exposed to 40°F (4°C) or above for more than two hours; its chart includes milk and soy milk. That is outage guidance, not a shelf-life rule for jelly art cake.
