Cooking
All of these products we need, but there is still one thing that we will need for this dish - it molds, in which we will form our candles. Understand that these molds is not at all (to be honest, I'm not sure if they exist), so you'll have to use the means at hand. Cardboard, paper, or what else comes to mind. I took the path of least resistance and went to the... pharmacy. Yes, it is the pharmacy that would buy 10 syringes, 20 CC. Leaving the pharmacy I was struck by the laughter that did not go unnoticed by her husband. To the natural question, what is so funny I found at the pharmacy. I asked him to present a picture that would have thought the pharmacist if I told them why I needed the syringes...:) But I digress. So, the easiest way to get syringes, piston and needle, we can safely throw away, we don't need. But the remaining part needs a little more time to prepare to close the hole for the needle with a piece of toothpick.
Candle we have two kinds: transparent and red grape-pomegranate. For candles grape grape wash, disassembled into individual berries and chop the strawberries on the toothpicks.
Then, the workpiece is laid in the prepared form -syringes.
Pomegranate candle. For their preparation it is necessary to disassemble grenades on berries and seeds. Shapes set in a suitable vertical base - I have the cups from the yogurt maker. Sprinkle a little garnet granules, paste at the center of rigidity for future candles toothpick and fill it to the end.
The jelly I used for cakes transparent. All I need is to mix the dry ingredients for jelly with 70 g of sugar, add water and bring mixture to a boil, simmer for 15 s and jellies are ready to fill.
You can use any jelly, gelatin+juice at will, most importantly, follow the instructions on the package. The only caveat - the amount of water a little decrease from the norm.
Pour prepared jelly shapes. Tip: start with forms with garnet, as the jelly in them quickly begins to harden and can not fill out the entire form to the end. Completed forms, put on 10-15 minutes in the refrigerator. Meanwhile, prepare the "lights" for candles. Slices of tangerine or orange peel cut into small oblong triangles and put the pieces of the toothpicks.
As soon as the jelly is well seized, get billet of the candles from the fridge. I honestly tried to get the candle in the usual way - lowering for a few minutes in hot water, but the result was zero. Actually, even negative. Jelly candles from the form get failed, but they were spread right in front. It turned out that that they easily slipped out of the shape you need to cut the tip of the syringe to which the needle is worn, resulting in the obtained hollow-out comes the air and the candles just after take off from the lightest of shaking.
Prepare the "candle" candle holder. To do this, take any fruit (apples, pears, tangerines, oranges at Your discretion), I took apples and tangerines. Apples cut in half and lay on a dish cut down, with a Mandarin cut with one side a little rind for stability and also slice on a plate. Top stick half of the toothpick - which will set up the candles.
That's all ready, prepared candles set on the basis of, top adjusts "spark". And serve. Tip: you should install immediately before serving as the jelly substance gentle and of long standing the candle just melts.
Another use of such candles can be a cake decoration.
