Marbled Jelly

Take a jelly-mould, place some pieces of sweet jelly at the bottom; over these pour some more that has had milk or cream mixed with it to render it white, so as to form the veins of the marble. The jelly should be only liquid, for if it is too warm it will melt the other, and ruin the effect. Allow the jelly to get cool as soon as possible, then proceed as before, and keep on in that way until the mould is full; pack it in ice and leave it until the jelly is quite set. When ready, dip the mould in warm water, and turn out on a glass dish.
