Equipment

  • Blender or food processor
  • Fine mesh sieve
  • Small silicone molds (e.g., dome or square shapes)
  • Double boiler or microwave-safe bowl
  • Pastry brush or small spoon

Ingredients
  

  • For the Berry Gelée:
  • 1 1/2 cups mixed berries strawberries, raspberries, or blackberries
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin
  • 1/4 cup water
  • For the Chocolate Coating:
  • 12 oz semi-sweet or dark chocolate finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil optional, for shine

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Berry Gelée:
  • Blend the berries in a blender or food processor until smooth.
  • Strain the purée through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds.
  • In a small saucepan, combine the berry purée, sugar, and lemon juice. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
  • In a separate bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over 1/4 cup of water and let it bloom for 5 minutes.
  • Add the bloomed gelatin to the warm berry mixture, stirring until fully dissolved.
  • Pour the mixture into silicone molds and refrigerate for 2–3 hours, or until firm.
  • Prepare the Chocolate Coating:
  • Melt the chocolate in a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  • Stir in the coconut oil for a shinier finish, if desired.
  • Coat the Gelée:
  • Gently remove the set gelée pieces from the molds.
  • Using a pastry brush or spoon, coat each gelée piece with melted chocolate, ensuring even coverage.
  • Place the coated pieces on a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for 15–20 minutes, or until the chocolate hardens.
  • Garnish and Serve:
  • For an extra touch, drizzle melted white chocolate or sprinkle edible gold dust on top.
  • Serve chilled or at room temperature for a sophisticated dessert.
