How to make jelly glass. Cake “Broken Glass” with cookies. Cake Broken glass with fruits and berries

The “Broken Glass” cake is jelly, very tender and moderately sweet. It is prepared in several stages: first you need to make three types of multi-colored jelly, bake a sponge cake and, finally, prepare sour cream jelly.

For colorful jelly

You will need purchased mixtures - ready-made concentrate in bags, the contents of which are diluted with water and poured into molds. To make the cake look contrasting in cross-section, cooks use jelly of different colors, for example, strawberry, orange and kiwi.

Biscuit

bake quickly at home or buy ready-made in the store to save time.

For sour cream jelly

you just need to beat the sour cream with sugar and add the swollen gelatin. Take sour cream with a fat content of 15-20%, always fresh and non-acidic, without grains! To make the cake even tastier, I recommend adding fruit; canned peaches and bananas work well.

Since the “Broken Glass” cake is gelatin, it will take time to harden, at least 4-5 hours. It’s even better to leave it in the refrigerator overnight so that the cakes stick better to the base and the dessert can be cut well. I recommend starting preparation a day before the festive event.

Total cooking time: 10 hours
Cooking time: 20 minutes
Yield: 10-15 servings, shape 26x26 cm

Ingredients

for the recipe

• jelly concentrate – 3 packs of different flavors
• water – 250 ml for each package of jelly
• bananas – 1-2 pcs.
• sour cream – 600 g
• sugar – 150 g
• gelatin powder – 20 g
• water for diluting gelatin – 100 ml
• vanillin – 1 chip.

for biscuit

• flour – 1.5 tbsp.
• sugar – 1 tbsp.
• cocoa powder – 2.5 tbsp. l.
• baking powder – 7 g
• soda – 3/4 tsp.
• chicken eggs – 2 pcs. small
• milk – 0.5 tbsp.
• vegetable oil – 50 ml
• boiling water – 0.5 tbsp.

Note: 1 tbsp = 200 ml.

Preparation

Colorful jelly

First of all, you need to prepare three types of multi-colored jelly. I used ready-made dry concentrate with pineapple, kiwi and cherry flavors, you can choose any flavor you like. The main thing is that the colors are different and bright, then the “Broken Glass” cake will turn out colorful when cut.

Read the instructions on the package carefully, as different manufacturers have different preparation techniques, volume of water and setting time. I have each package weighing 85 g for 400 ml of boiling water, you just need to pour it in and stir until dissolved. I used less water (250 ml each) so that the jelly not only froze, but also cut well with a knife. I poured it into silicone molds, from which it is very easy to remove. If you don’t have such molds, any bowl will do, but after it hardens, you will have to dip it in hot water so that the jelly comes away from the walls.



Chocolate sponge cake

For the sponge cake, I combined all the dry ingredients in a bowl: sifted flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking soda and baking powder. Separately, beat the eggs with a mixer until fluffy, pour in the vegetable oil and beat again. Add the dry mixture and milk to the beaten eggs in parts, and finally pour in boiling water. I immediately poured the dough into a pan lined with parchment and put it in a hot oven. I used a square pan measuring 26x26 cm.



Bake at 180 degrees until fully cooked (the torch should be dry) - for 20-25 minutes. I cooled the cake on a wire rack and then cut it lengthwise into two layers. I prepared a light syrup for soaking sponge cakes - from boiled water and sugar, you can take syrup from canned peaches or pineapples.



Sour cream jelly with cake additives

When all three types of jelly have hardened, they need to be carefully removed from the molds and cut not too finely, 2-3 cm in size. It is better to cut unevenly and roughly - when cut, pieces of colored jelly will look more realistic, like broken glass.



For sour cream jelly, we need to take gelatin powder, sour cream of any fat content, sugar and a little vanillin for flavoring. I measured out 20 g of gelatin and poured 100 ml of boiled cold water over it. I left it for 10 minutes to swell (see the time indicated on the package), then heated it until it was completely dissolved so that there were no lumps.



While the gelatin is swelling, combine the sour cream with sugar and vanillin and beat with a mixer at low speed until the sugar crystals dissolve. Then pour in the diluted gelatin (warm, but not hot) in a thin stream, without turning off the mixer. The result should be a homogeneous mass - it hardens very quickly, so we continue to work without delay.





Assembling the jelly cake

I placed the first cake layer in the mold, soaked it in syrup and spread all the jelly filling on top. She covered it with the second cake layer, pressing it lightly with her hands.



I also soaked the biscuit with syrup on top. I put the dessert in the refrigerator - it should completely harden.



Place in the refrigerator for 5 hours



All that remains is to cut into portions and you can invite everyone to the table! The “Mosaic” or “Broken Glass” cake looks beautiful when cut, it is colorful and light, and will appeal to lovers of jelly desserts. The recipe is especially relevant for hot summertime, when you want something light and cool. Enjoy your tea both in summer and winter!

Jelly cake “Broken Glass” looks bright and presentable, it turns out very tender and pleasant to the taste. For the filling, in addition to the peaches and colored jelly used in the recipe, you can use pieces of marmalade, any berries and fruits (except for fresh pineapple and kiwi, since these fruits contain a special enzyme that is not friendly with gelatin).

This cute, colorful dessert is quite easy to prepare. By the way, if you don’t want to turn on the oven and bake a sponge cake, you can use the simplest shortbread for the base of the cake, breaking it into pieces, you can also use the popular one, which must first be soaked in any syrup (for example, leftover from canned peaches).

Ingredients:

For the biscuit:

• eggs - 2 pcs.;
• flour - 50 g;
• butter - 10 g;
• sugar - 75 g.

For sour cream jelly:

• sour cream - 500 g;
• powdered gelatin - 10 g;
• sugar - 100 g;
• vanilla sugar - 10 g.

For filling:

• canned peaches - 1 standard jar;
• jelly of different colors - 2 bags.

Cake “Broken Glass” recipe with photos step by step

How to make jelly cake “Broken Glass” with sponge cake

1. First of all, prepare two types of jelly, following the instructions on the package. Pour into two different forms and put in the refrigerator for several hours (until it hardens). It is advisable to choose two rich and contrasting jellies for dessert, then the “Broken Glass” cake will turn out to be the brightest and most impressive.
   
2. In the meantime, prepare the sponge cake. Without separating the whites/yolks, combine the eggs with sugar. Beat with a mixer for 5-7 minutes (until a fluffy, thick mass is obtained).
   
3. In several steps, add the sifted flour to the egg mixture, stirring it each time with a spoon or spatula. We achieve a homogeneous and smooth biscuit dough without flour lumps.
   
4. Melt the butter until liquid. After cooling, pour along the sides of the bowl into the dough. Mix the mass carefully.
   
5. Cover the bottom of a round mold with a diameter of 22 cm with parchment (the walls do not need to be greased). Lay out and distribute the biscuit dough evenly.
   
6. Bake at 180 degrees for about 20 minutes. We check readiness with a skewer or toothpick by piercing the biscuit in the center. If there is no sticky dough left on the stick, the cake is ready!
   
7. Cool the sponge cake and then cut it so that its diameter is slightly smaller than the size of the bowl in which the jelly cake will be formed. Soak the cake with syrup from canned peaches (about 4-5 tablespoons).

8. Now prepare the sour cream jelly cream. Dissolve gelatin in 100 ml of water and allow it to swell. This usually takes about 10 minutes, but it's best to trust the instructions on the package. Dissolve the swollen gelatin mass in a “water bath” and cool.
   
9. Immediately put the entire portion of sour cream into a large salad bowl in which our jelly cake will harden, add vanilla and simple sugar. Beat the sour cream mixture until the sugar grains are completely dissolved. Next, pour in the gelatin in a thin stream, continuing to work with the mixer.
   
10. We immerse containers with frozen colored jellies in a bowl of hot water for 25-30 seconds, and then turn them over onto plates. Using a knife, cut each jelly into large pieces.
    
11. We remove the peaches from the syrup and also cut them quite coarsely.
    
12. We separate the pieces of jelly one by one from the total mass and load them into sour cream. Next add the peaches. Gently mix the mixture with a spoon to distribute the additives evenly. Place the cake on top, pressing it into the cream. Place the dessert in the refrigerator for 4-5 hours or overnight - the sour cream jelly should completely harden.
    
13. Place the bowl with the finished cake in a bowl of hot water for 30 seconds or simply blow it on the outside with a hairdryer. Then cover the container with the jelly mass with a large plate and turn it over. Remove the bowl, cut the dessert into portions and serve.
    

In cross-section, the Broken Glass jelly cake looks very cute and cheerful! Bon appetit!

I bring to your attention a light and delicate dessert - “Broken Glass” cake with fruit and cookies. This is the 100th recipe on my site, so I wanted to cook something interesting, special and please my dear readers. And I decided to make this beautiful, delicious and refreshing cake. It doesn't need to be baked, so it's quick and easy to prepare using readily available ingredients such as cookies, fruit and sour cream jelly. The cake recipe can be changed. For example, instead of cookies, use a biscuit, which you can prepare yourself or buy ready-made in the store. Add any fruit, both fresh and canned. Instead of one cake, make several small portions in bowls or glasses. They look very impressive on the holiday table.

• Cookies “Napoleon” – 200 g
• Sour cream (20%) – 500 g
• Sugar – 1 tbsp. (200 g)
• Gelatin – 2 tbsp. (20 g)
• Water – 150 ml
• Vanillin
• Fruits (orange, kiwi, banana, strawberry, currant)

How to make Broken Glass Cake with Fruits and Cookies

The “Broken Glass” cake can be prepared with either multi-colored jelly or any fruit you like. I decided to make it with fruit. It is much tastier and healthier, without any dyes and flavors that are contained in the finished jelly. For fruits I used kiwi, orange, banana, strawberry and black currant.
So, peel the kiwi and cut it into thin circles, and then into pieces of any shape. But, it should be remembered that kiwi reduces the gelling properties of gelatin, so you don’t need to add a lot of them to such a cake.

We peel the oranges and also cut them into circles, and then into small triangles.

Cut the strawberries in half, and larger ones into 4 parts. It's winter now, so I used frozen strawberries and blackcurrants, which I thawed slightly. And in the summer, when there is an abundance of fresh berries, such a cake will be even tastier and more aromatic.

Lastly, cut the banana into slices.

Let's prepare sour cream jelly. In general, this cake can be made not only with sour cream, but also with yogurt or milk; in any case, it will turn out delicious.
So, combine sour cream with sugar and vanilla, and beat with a whisk or mixer. To make the grains dissolve faster, it is better to take fine sugar or use powdered sugar. I used a coffee grinder, it crushed the sugar literally in a matter of seconds.

Dissolve gelatin (I use instant gelatin). Pour 2 tablespoons of gelatin with hot water (70-80 degrees) and stir until completely dissolved. Cool slightly.
If you have a different gelatin, prepare it according to the instructions on the package.

Add the warm gelatin into the sour cream in a thin stream, stirring quickly all the time. As soon as the sour cream jelly is ready, we immediately begin to assemble the cake so that the jelly does not harden.

Line a deep bowl with cling film so that its edges hang down slightly. This is necessary so that you can easily get the finished cake later. You can use any other mold, a silicone muffin mold works well. As a rule, they have a beautiful raised pattern, and your cake will take the same shape.
Let's start assembling the cake. First, place some of the fruit on the bottom of the bowl.

Break the cookies into small pieces and place them in a thin layer on the fruit. I used Napoleon biscuits, you can take a sweet cracker or make a Broken Glass cake with sponge cake, which is cut into small cubes. You can prepare it yourself according to any recipe or buy it ready-made in the store.

Then, again lay out a layer of berries and so on until the form is filled. The last layer is cookies. In total I got 3 layers of fruit and cookies. Cover the bowl with cling film and place in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours until completely set. You can leave it overnight, then the cookies will be better soaked in sour cream.

Take the cake out of the refrigerator, place a plate on top and carefully turn it over. All that remains is to remove the bowl and remove the cling film from the cake. If desired, you can decorate the cake with fruit.

Cake “Broken Glass” with fruits and cookies is ready! It turned out very tasty, tender and holds its shape well. We cut it into portions and the whole family enjoys this wonderful dessert.

Enjoy your tea party everyone!

A delicious dessert that requires no baking or special preparation skills. Cake "Broken Glass" worthy of any holiday table - be it a dinner party or a quiet romantic dinner! This jelly cake can be prepared in absolutely different ways: with the addition of sponge cake, cookies, or simply pour the cake mixture into the mold and let it thicken. Instead of sour cream, you can use the most delicious yogurt, with or without toppings.
You can add various fillings to it: nuts, candied fruits, pieces of fresh or canned fruit, multi-colored jelly (made by yourself) or marmalade.

Cake “Broken Glass” with milk:

Ingredients:

• gelatin – 20–25 g
• milk – 250 ml
• water – 100 ml
• sugar and vanillin to taste
• fruits if desired (you can do without them)

Preparation:

Prepare the jelly according to the instructions on the package, BUT reducing the amount of water to 150-180 ml. Pour the prepared jelly into molds and let it harden in the refrigerator. If desired, you can make jelly from homemade compotes (1 half tablespoon of gelatin per 1 glass of compote). When the jelly is ready, proceed to the milk jelly.

For milk jelly, dissolve gelatin in 100 ml of water, leave for 10-15 minutes to swell. Boil the milk and cool slightly, add the swollen gelatin, sugar and vanillin (to taste) to the milk, mix well. Heat the milk mixture on the stove, BUT DO NOT BOIL, otherwise the milk will curdle. Remove from the stove and cool. If necessary, you can strain.

Prepare a mold for the Broken Glass cake. Peel and cut the fruits. I had one orange and two small kiwis. Don't overdo it with kiwi. Pineapple and kiwi break down gelatin.
Place in layers: fruit and colorful jelly. Then pour the COOLED milk jelly over everything and put it in the refrigerator until completely hardened - at least 4 hours. I put it on overnight.

Before serving, dip the cake pan in hot water for a few seconds, then turn the cake over onto a flat plate. Decorate the cake with fruit.

• gelatin – 20–25 g
• sour cream – 500 ml
• water – 100 ml
• sugar and vanillin to taste

Prepare jelly. We do everything the same as for jelly cake with milk. Pour the jelly into molds and refrigerate until completely set.

My biscuit was prepared in advance. If you can’t make your own biscuit, you can use any soft biscuit.
Cut the cooled biscuit into cake layers. Set aside one cake layer (the bottom one) for the cake, cut the other into cubes. The cookies can simply be broken into pieces.

When our multi-colored one completely hardens. You can have jelly with sour cream.

Pour gelatin with water, leave to swell, then heat it on the stove, BUT DO NOT BOIL! The gelatin should dissolve. Beat sour cream with sugar and vanilla. Pour in the cooled gelatin in a thin stream, whisking continuously.

The mass begins to set almost immediately, so you need to hurry up with assembling the cake.

Place in the mold in layers: a layer of sour cream jelly, a layer of multi-colored jelly and pieces of biscuit (or pieces of cookies). Fill out the form to the top.

Place the sponge cake on top and press down lightly. Place the cake in the refrigerator for several hours, or better yet, overnight!

Before serving, dip the cake pan in hot water for a few seconds, then turn the cake over onto a flat plate.
