hey can anyone help, i was wondering if i gently disolved agar agar on the heat into a sugar free (0syn) squash would that make 0 syn nice tasting jelly? i cant use gelatin as im a vegetarian, thanks! :)
 
it would make a soft jelly as agar agar sets softer than gelatine, I also don't know how much you would have to dissolve juice wise, are the sugar free juices syn free? (I genuinely don't know)

what about dissolving the agar agar into a fruit tea with sweetner?

You can also get "vege-gel" from Morrisons, and sugar free vegetarian jelly sachets from weight watchers.

Hope this helps
 
hey thank lexie yeah i have had the veggie sugar free ww jelly it is nice i just wondered if i could make a free jelly thats an interesting idea with the tea i will try and see what happens! i just wasnt sure if it was still free like when u cook fruit it becomes syns, do you know if the vege gel is free?
 
I think it is, as regular gelatine is free, as is the agar agar.,

I've used fruit tea and sweetner to make syn free sorbet before now.
