Alternatives ?
Want to make this Fruity Jelly Dessert Recipe but don’t have some of the ingredients? Try these:
- No condensed milk? Mix evaporated milk with ⅓ – 1 cup of sugar. Adding ⅓ cup at a time to be able to properly fix how much sugar you add into the jelly dessert. You can also add the sugar after all the ingredients have been simmered together. Tasting and adding some a bit at a time.
- No All purpose cream? You can use any other cream like half and half, coconut cream, or a 1:1 or 1:2 ratio of butter and milk. Though do note that if you are using half and half this might already have sweeteners in it. Using coconut cream, depending on the brand, might have a strong coconut taste. If you want a really quick substitute, use full cream milk.
- Gelatin substitute? Use unflavored clear gulaman or unflavored agar agar powder. Using gulaman or agar agar also helps quicken up chill time. These stabilize faster.
- Prefer it Dairy free? Use nut milks like almond, cashew, hazelnuts for an added nutty flavor. Use soy or oat for slightly less flavored milk. You can also use coconut based products instead.
- Use other fruits. You can substitute the fruits with any canned fruits. Just make sure to strain them. Use fruits that do not have much liquids in these or make sure to strain the fruits well to avoid a very watery jelly dessert.
