Mosaic jelly—also known as stained glass jelly—is a colorful, eye-catching dessert made with cubes of jelly suspended in a creamy base. This simple version uses just four ingredients and is perfect for beginners.
Mosaic Jelly (4-Ingredient Recipe)
Ingredients
-
2 packs flavored jelly (any colors you like)
-
1 cup hot water (for each jelly pack)
-
1 cup cream (fresh cream or tetra pack)
-
1 can condensed milk
Step-by-Step Directions
Step 1: Prepare the colored jelly
Dissolve each pack of flavored jelly separately in 1 cup of hot water. Stir until fully dissolved.
Pour each into shallow trays or plates so they set in thin layers. Refrigerate for 3–4 hours or until firm.
Step 2: Cut into cubes
Once set, cut the jelly into small cubes. You can mix different colors together in a bowl to create the mosaic effect.
Step 3: Prepare the creamy base
In a separate bowl, combine:
-
Cream
-
Condensed milk
Mix well until smooth. The texture should be slightly thick but pourable.
Step 4: Assemble the mosaic
Place the colorful jelly cubes into a serving dish or mold.
Gently pour the cream mixture over the cubes, making sure all pieces are coated and evenly distributed.
Step 5: Set the dessert
Refrigerate the assembled dessert for at least 4–6 hours, or until the creamy layer is fully set.

Cut into slices or scoop into bowls.
