----------------------- FRENCH JELLIES Or TURKISH DELIGHT Or GUMDROP SQUARES -----------------------
This is the only recipe I could find; but I do have one for Turkish Delight, which is dusted with powdered sugar; but this may be close to what you are looking for:
3/4 cup cold water 4 envelopes unflavored gelatin Sugar 1/8 teaspoon salt 2 Tablespoons lime or lemon juice 3 drops yellow OR red OR green food coloring 1 teaspoon orange OR lemon extract
Put cold water in saucepan and sprinkle with gelatin. Let stand 5 minutes, then add boiling water, 2 and 1/4 cups sugar and the salt. Remove from heat and stir in remaining ingredients. Pour into 8-inch square pan rinsed with cold water. Let stand at ROOM TEMPERATURE, OVERNIGHT. Next day: dip pan in hot water for a moment to loosen mixture. Turn out onto waxed paper, psrinkles with sugar. Cut into squares and roll in sugar. Makes 1 and 1/2 pounds. For Gumdrop Rounds Follow above recipe; cut candy in rounds with 1 and 1/4-inch cookie cutter. Roll in sugar.
