Love this gelatin, but i'm such a jello noob that i messed up the first time.
If it wasn't for a friend of mine who already used this product, i probably would of tossed it in the garbage after trying to use it the way the instructions suggest after the first time. So to help out anyone else, i'll post how i make jello here. I'll give you a quick recipe that i use to make cranberry juice jello.2 cups juice (i use lakewood cranberry juice, but you can use any kind of clear juice you want).2 tablespoons of great lakes gelatinsugar to tastea 3(or 4) cup pyrex container (a square or rectangular shaped one for the mold)a 2 cup pyrex measuring cup (for blooming the gelatin and measuring).i start off by mixing 1 cup of COLD juice with the 2 tablespoons of gelatin in the measuring cup.keep mixing till all the gelatin has been mixed with the juice, don't leave any chunks.then let sit for 5 mins. This will bloom the gelatin.After the 5 mins, dump the cup of juice/gelatin into the square pyrex dish, and then clean your measuring cup, then pouranother cup of juice into your measuring cup. I then microwave this cup for 2 minutes (maybe another minute after i test it)then take it out to measure the temperature. you want to try to get the liquid around 160F degrees. (should be pretty hot to the touch)then i mix in the sugar to taste, then add the hot liquid to the cold, and mix it.it should all be clear after you mix them together, and then i leave it sit on the counter for a few minutes,then put it in the fridge. It takes a few hours to harden.when i first tried to make this, i thought it was like other jello, where you mix it in with hot liquids.. which is a bad idea.. since you'll wind up with a wad of glue stuck onto your spoon. Then i tried to just mix it with cold water like the instructions said, but this never solidified. It turns out you have to mix with cold water, then apply hot water afterwards to activate it to harden.i hope this helps someone.************* Update *****************here is a marshmallow recipe:2 cups Sugar2 tablespoon Vanilla Extract3 tablespoons Gelatin (Great Lakes)1 cup WaterCoconut Oildirections:mix 1/2 cup of water and 3 tbls. gelatin, let bloom for 20 minutes.grease pyrex dish with coconut oil, and refrigerate to chillplace 2 cups of sugar in a pot with 1/2 cup of water. mix, and bringto boil. heat sugar till it hits 245F.using a kitchenaid mixer, add gelatin mixture to mixer bowl. (use wisk attachment.)slowly add the sugar into the mixer on low speed.once all sugar is added, increase to top speed.Keep mixing for 5 minutes (until it becomes marshmallowy!)at this point, add your vanilla or other flavorings.quickly pour marshmallow into pyrex bowl, and let sit for several hours.optional:after it has sat, you can cut into squares and roll in powdered sugar (and cornstarch optional).for chocolate marshmallows, i just use 2 tablespoons of chocolate extract, and 4 tablespoons of cocoa powder. Then powder it with a mix of cocoa powder and sugar.sometimes i use coconut extract and use coconut flakes on the outside.

Be patient
The instructions on the side of the canister very clearly explain how to use the product. I didn't read 'em. oops. The first day I dropped a rounded teaspoon into my milky tea. I was really happy it didn't change the taste. It felt like no difference at all until I got to the bottom of the mug. There was a big white glob like a hardened marble sitting there. All of the gelatin had congealed, I probably hadn't ingested any. I thought the problem might have been a lack of mixing. I used a fork, not a spoon, the next time I added some to a hot beverage. I got small, hard lumps the consistency of plaster of paris in my cup. At least they were small enough to swallow.I remembered making jello as a kid with my mom, standing over a pot of boiling water on the stove top. I thought to myself if that's what it takes, I won't be using this stuff in my daily diet. Relax. You don't have to do that.I finally read the directions, ha-ha - and figured out like so many other reviewers, to add the powder to room temp or cold liquid. Give it a minute to soak up the liquid. You'll end up with something that had the consistency of a slushy and looks like ice nine. Be patient. If you add hot water too soon you'll get lumps. Once a lump hardens it won't soften up. If you are patient and let all the gelatin "bloom" as one reviewer put it, then feel free to drop it into any warm drink. I've dissolved it completely into hot honey lemonade, black coffee, broth and chai latte. Why was I doing this?Because shortly before a colonoscopy the only food we're allowed to have is gelatin. Even then, you can't have red gelatin. I'm no fan of jello. But the no "red" rule sent me into a tailspin of worry. Colonoscopy is not something I wanna have to repeat - what if the blueberry jello used red dye to be blue? What about orange? would that be ok? I got so paranoid the only answer was to purchase unflavored gelatin. I think it is awesome the other reviewers were nice enough to post recipes. Thank you lots!!!The other day when I my son dropped by I was distracted because we were talking while I was putting together my drink. I accidentally dropped the powder into a hot drink, then immediately scooped out what I could and plopped it into a cold liquid. The result was a gelatinous goo the consistency of creepy crawlers. He couldn't believe I ate it. It tasted exactly like it smelled. It's a very neutral taste, like eating vinyl. There's better ways to eat it. If you want to fold this stuff into hot cereal I suggest letting it bloom in cold milk while you prepare the oatmeal. After the powder is fully absorbed and the cold milk looks like slush, fold it into the meal.It feels very counterintuitive to add the product to cold or room temperature liquids, yet that is the correct way to do it.My skin and hair do seem healthy. As for losing weight - I probably haven't used it long enough to see results.
