my friend makes blamange (sorry if sp!) with jelly and....

[lunavix]

some 'milk in a can' apparently!

Would it be evaporated or condensed do you think?

evap, but It isn't blancmange

Its evap and the dessert is called "Jelly whip"

It is absolutely delish!

Use normal milk for milk jelly.Yumm!

oh is it just milky jelly?

I've never had blamange, just thought it sounded fun to do with the kids!

Does she work in an old people's home, perchance?

she said to use any flavour jelly.. but I'd imagine strawberry or raspberry would be best? Can't see a citrus going down too well...

If you really whip the evap, then stir in (cooled) jelly and stir - leave to set

Blancmange is a flavoured custard (If I am remembering right)

colditz - no lol she's a CM like me

Blancmange is cornflour, milk, flavouring and colours - ie lemon juice, or strawberries whizzed up

Most people don't really like it

You can get packet mixes of blancmange but dread to think what's in them. I used to make milk jelly using strawberry or blackcurrant and normal milk - the kids loved it.

melt jelly in 1/4 to 1/2 pint of boiling water, then whisk in can of evap milk. - my mum would tell you that the whisking is very important!

I haven't had this since I was a child. yummy yummy.... My mum used to make it, bottom half normal jelly, top half made with tinned milk..

Agree not blancmange, as don't need tinned milk, although equally yummy....

yes we used to call it fluff
