Hello Steemians! Do you know what are 3D Decorated Gelatins? Or 3D Art Gelatins?

Today, I bring you a very hidden passion that very few people know that I have: How to make 3D Decorated Gelatins or Artistic Gelatin.

There is not much secrecy in this of 3D decorated gelatins really, it is just a matter of practice, so the more times you do them, they'll come out better.

Nevertheless, it is necessary that you know the techniques that are used to make this type of gelatin. It will not take you long because it is not really difficult, but it does require practice; and it's possible that the first Art Gelatin you make does not look perfect on you, but it will not be a disaster either.

These Works of Art is done easily and quickly without much effort, or complication with needles, gouges (sold in specialized sites) and special spoons with different designs to make some flowers that will be spectacular!

And you are wondering, what are the ingredients and tools? Well here I leave you:

Ingredients:

For transparent gelatin:

  • 1 liter of filtered water at room temperature.
  • 2 1/2 cups of sugar.
  • 2 tablespoons essence of your preference (pineapple, lemon, orange, strawberry, etc).
  • 1 tablespoon of citric acid.
  • 12 tablespoons gelatin without flavor powder.

For milk gelatin:

  • 1 cup of filtered water at room temperature.
  • 1 cup of liquid milk
    3 tablespoons gelatin without flavor powder.
  • 1 1/2 of sugar.
  • 2 tablespoons of essence to taste (shortbread, cream, caramel, etc)

Tools:

  • Droppers.
  • injectors or syringes.
  • Transparent containers or molds for jellies.
  • Napkins or absorbent paper.

Special teaspoons to make flowers in 3D.

Preparation for transparent gelatin.

  1. Mix the unflavored gelatin powder with the refined sugar.
  2. Place the cups of water at room temperature in a container and add the gelatin powder with the sugar in the form of rain to hydrate.
  3. Dissolve with a fork so that no lumps remain.
  4. Put the sugar and gelatin in the microwave for a few minutes until they dissolve completely. Verify that it does not boil.
  5. Add citric acid and essence.
    Let stand.
  6. Dump the gelatin on the molds.
    If bubbles appear, they are removed with a spoon.
  7. Take to the refrigerator for at least 8 hours before working it.

TIP: Remember that refined sugar helps to make gelatine more transparent.

Preparation for milk gelatin.

  1. Mix the unflavored gelatin powder with the refined sugar.
  2. Place the gelatin powder in a container with the sugar in the form of rain with the cup of water and add the milk.
  3. Put the sugar and gelatin in the microwave for a few minutes until they dissolve completely.
  4. Verify that it does not boil and place the essence.
  5. Let it rest, and when it is at room temperature, it is added to the gelatin with the finished flower.

And here is the final result of these beautiful Artworks:

At my favorite brewery they have bathtubs full of IPA that they let me bathe in. I'd love a spa day of bathing in beer while enjoying this food.

Well, I have read that the beer is also good for the skin, because beer hops act as an astringent eliminating fat and barley helps balance the pH of your skin! Beer is rich in proteins and vitamins for hops and barley.

Wow this looks awesome!! I have never seen something like this!

Espectacular!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Demasiado bellas esas gelatinas!
