| description | I was going to do this last January after a suggestion on the forum. I went out and bought the jelly and sponge, left it in a bag and forgot about it. My wife found the bag last week and there was only a few days left on the best before date, so I thought I will sort it for Xmas day dessert instead of the standard stodgy pudding. It took nearly two gallons of jelly and the shell had to be supported all round to take the weight as the layers increased. I did each layer (8 of them) different flavours and colours to give a striped effect. 'It all turned out cracking Gromit' once I figured how to get it out of the shell in one piece. luckily I had the use of a luxury 30 grand showroom display air conditioned fridge to speed up the setting and to fit the shell in as it was too big to fit in a normal fridge. P.s it tasted great and me Jim and Sam ate quite a lot but there is still about a gallon of jelly left! I think it took about 18 packs of jelly in total so if you fancy any send a jiffy bag and cover the postage  Not sure if this classes as a reproduction shell  and the decals would not stick.
Happy Christmas and a happy new year

Mmm, always room for jello
Now why didn't I think of that. I have an uncut HotShot body here, will use a bit less jelly for that.
thats a top tip lol !!
nice one!
It'd make a great shell, so long as you don't stop suddenly - the chassis would stop as the body kept on going
