I did process the jelly for ten minutes as was advised by pectin. Lovely color. Just right for Christmas

I took your advice and put the red hots in the food processor, turned them into powder and they dissolved instantly. This jelly took a little longer to set than others that I have made, but it did set within a few hours. Tastes just like a candy apple!

You would risk the jelly not setting up properly if you reduce the amount. Thanks!

If you used apple cider, especially the kind with lots of cinnamon, pulp, and spice, your jelly would be cloudy and wouldn’t be as pretty to look at ;)

If it would be better then just apple juice? If not i won’t waste the cider and just buy some juice.

Have you ever tried it that way? Thanks for sharing and I am gong to make this soon!
