Milk and Honey Jellos with Rose Syrup are refreshing, melt-in-the-mouth jellos with a light syrup drizzled over – perfect dessert for Spring celebrations, Easter, Mother’s Day.
These little Milk and Honey Jellos with Rose Syrup are so melt-in-the-mouth delicious, I could eat a whole batch by myself.
This is the perfect dessert to welcome the new Spring season for all my Northern hemisphere friends. But the Jellos are also ideal for Easter.
Maybe with a little Easter Egg on top ? or for Mother’s Day with the Rose Petals as we like to enjoy them.
I googled something we have in our stores in South-Africa, called a Flanby, which I am particularly fond of, but sadly I could only find one reference to Flanby’s.
And it was not exactly what I was after. A Flanby is a lot like a Creme Brulee, but also not the same thing.
These Milk and Honey Jellos with Rose Syrup , reminds me a lot of a Flanby, the taste is slightly different. Flanby’s are more of a Caramel flavor and the bottoms (which when you turn them out, becomes the top) are soaked in a Caramel Syrup.
Now, after enjoying these Milk and Honey Jellos, I think it is time to put on my thinking hat and come up with a Caramel flavored (and Caramel soaked) version.
These Jellos are extremely versatile in that most of the flavorings can be changed to just about anything else you like.
If individual servings is not your thing, use a larger mold and make one big dessert. Maybe with a whole Rose as decoration on top with the Syrup drizzled over and around the Rose and then sprinkled with the Pistachio Nuts.
