Chocolate Spider Web Jellies with Orange Juice
No Halloween party is complete without spiders! Make these easy chocolate spider web jellies for an eye catching Halloween dessert that kids will love!
Chocolate Spider Web Jellies
Jelly is a must at any kids’ party and this one is super simple! These adorable chocolate spider web jellies are the perfect addition to any Halloween party and a great snack idea for kids for this season. The chocolate webs add just the right creepy touch and taste great with the orange jelly (I love the sweet and sour combination!). And they’re insanely easy to make!
You can even make these easy chocolate spider web jellies in an adult version by adding a little booze to your jellies (think vodka or tequila). Or play with the colors by using different kinds of juice. Or mix colors up in the same glass to jazz up your setting and keep your crowd in awe!
If you’re feeling adventurous (read skilled), replace the webs with chocolate spiders. No matter your choice, you’re sure to impress your guests of any age.
Chocolate Spider Web Jellies with orange juice
Ingredients:
- 16 oz orange juice (fresh would make a healthier option)
- 3 to 6 strips gelatine (I used 6 of this gelatine)
- 1 oz chocolate (if you’re very handy you might need less; I’m a mess at decorating with chocolate so I needed more to balance out all the spills)
You will also need:
- medium saucepan
- baking sheet
- parchment paper
- freezer bag
- sharp scissors
[amazon-related-products keywords=”product suggestions keywords”]
Directions:
- Heat the orange juice in a pan and bring to a boil.
- Cover the gelatine in cold water and leave for a few mins until softened (you might wanna check the package for instructions). Squeeze out any excess water.
- Take the pan off the heat and stir in the gelatine until completely dissolved.
- Let the mixture cool a little, then divide between 5 small glasses.
- Place in the fridge overnight.
- For the webs. Cover a baking sheet with some baking parchment. Melt the chocolate in a bain marie. Pour the melted chocolate into a freezer bag. Snip off just a tiny piece of one corner. Pipe out 5 spider webs onto the baking parchment (pipe a large circle with a smaller circle inside, then pipe lines coming out from the centre like the spokes of a wheel). Place the chocolate spider webs in the fridge to harden. Just before serving, carefully peel away each spider web from the parchment and place on top of a jelly.
- Enjoy your chocolate spider web jellies!
