Further experiments in vegan jelly things
(lemmy.dbzer0.com)
So as you can see this yields a pretty pleasantly jiggly jelly. Unfortunately I haven't been able to get reliable layer adhesion which you can also see.
This is 0.25% agar and 0.2% guar the latter helps make the gel elastic and reduce weaping, agar alone tends to be brittle. The rest is ~~druid~~ fruit syrup, just boil for a couple of minutes to fully hydrate the agar :)
- no druids were harmed in the making of this
hello again, I saw this video and they do the pouring over a spatula/spoon trick a few times. nice looking stuff too!

Oh thank you! That's so thoughtful.
I tried it myself and while it worked super well the bottom ended up looking strange but everything was wonderful once inverted.
Mentioning bar tending was useful, as it lead me to how you can use sugar content to adjust relative densities to get the effect you want.
Right on, I'm glad you had good luck. I used to make fun layered desserts like this. One really good base layer I liked was avocado chocolate mousse. Basically what the name suggests, melt dark chocolate, thoroughly mix with avocado, sweeten to taste.
I never did different densities of things, I just chilled them in between layers to help them set. Density is probably a better way to do that for larger batches of stuff as you wouldn't need a bunch of fridge space.
