Coconut Jelly Eggs

By: Lyndsay // Coco Cake Land
Makes: 8
Takes: 1 hour 10 minutes

equipment

  • 1 silicon egg shaped mould
  • 1 small 1 inch sphere mould
  • 1 melon baller

ingredients

  • 1 400ml can full fat coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup granulated white sugar
  • 1 tbsp agar agar powder
  • pinch fine sea salt
  • 1 tsp yellow gel food colouring

instructions

  • In a medium saucepan set over medium heat, add the coconut milk, granulated sugar, agar-agar powder and salt, whisking to combine.
  • Allow the sugar and agar-agar powder to completely dissolve, stirring occasionally, about two to three minutes. Mixture will begin to thicken.
  • Being careful to work quickly and efficiently before the agar agar sets, pour the coconut milk mixture into the egg shaped moulds.
  • Pour the remaining coconut milk mixture into a small bowl. Whisk in the yellow gel food colouring to combine.
  • Using a tiny spoon or a food syringe, fill the smaller sphere mould cavities with the yellow coconut jelly.
  • Carefully move the moulds to the fridge and refrigerate until firm, one hour.
  • When the jelly has set, remove moulds from the fridge. Pop out the white eggs and using the melon baller, carve out a divot for the yolk. Pop out the yellow spheres and place into the divot.
  • Coconut jelly eggs can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to three days! Enjoy your jiggly new egg friends!
