Instructions
- Place the gelatine sheets in a bowl and cover with cold water. Leave to soak for 5 minutes.
- Break up the cubes of jelly and place them in a pot.

- Pour the cold water into the pot and place the gelatine sheets in too.
- Put the pot on a low-medium heat on the hob, add the orange juice and stir well until the sheets are fully dissolved.
- Remove from the heat, and separate the liquid into 2 jugs. Put ⅓ of the mix in one jug and ⅔ of the mix in another.
- Pour the miwadi into the jug with ⅔ of the mix and stir well.
- Then pour this liquid into the ice-cube tray, filling only ⅔ of the way.
- Leave these to set for 30 minutes in the fridge.
- After 25 minutes, mix the yoghurt into the other jug with ⅓ of the gelatine liquid.
- Stir well until fully combined and there are no lumps.
- Remove the tray from the fridge and fill it up with the yoghurt mixture.
- Leave to set for 3+ hours in the fridge or for best results, overnight.
- Remove the jellies carefully from the tray and enjoy!
