It's a Jelly Week End

I cannot pass the lovely jelly mooncakes posted by Anncoo recently.  I tried with two types of fruits - kiwifruits and canned longans.  These jellies are a great hit at home.

These fillings are canned longans.

 

 

These are kiwifruits jellies my first attempt.  I have these kiwifruits jellies because of my poor estimation from the kiwifruits jelly mooncakes.

 

  

 

These are my kiwifuits jelly - my top layer were too thick hence I have left overs for the kiwifruits jellies. :)  And I was so excited that I forgot to add color in my first attempt ....
