Prepare these charming and delicious puff pastry snails with jam, which will be the highlight of any tea party, especially if you want to surprise your little guests. These cute treats are not only easy to make but also look very impressive, reminiscent of magical forest adventures.

Begin by thawing the puff pastry. Prepare a rolling pin and line your work surface with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

Preheat the oven to 200 °C. Lightly flour a surface and place the dough on it. Carefully roll it out into a thin sheet, 2–3 mm thick.

Cut the dough into long strips, about 1.5 cm wide. From each strip, cut off a piece approximately 4 cm long. Spread raspberry jam on the remaining long strips, leaving about 0.5 tsp of jam for the next step, and carefully roll them into tight spirals, which will form the "shells" of the snails.

Arrange the short strips of dough on a baking sheet, shaping one end to resemble a snail's head. Place a drop of the remaining jam in the center of each short strip. Top with the dough rolls, pressing firmly to create cute snail shapes. Bake in a preheated oven for 12–15 minutes until golden brown. Allow the finished snails to cool.

Cut the strawberry marmalade into thin strips 1.5–2 cm long. Use them to create amusing antennae, attaching them to the snails' "heads."

Serve these delightful puff pastry snails with freshly brewed green tea to savor their delicate flavor and lift your spirits.

In just half an hour, you can prepare delicious shrimp in a creamy sauce. You'll need cream for this. It's best to choose a higher fat content. Cream with a higher percentage of fat has a more pronounced creamy taste and makes the sauce thicker. The finished shrimp can be served either with or without a side dish. Either way, it will be delicious.

Red currants are a true treasure trove of pectin, which is why jam made from them turns out incredibly thick, like a delicate jelly. To achieve the perfect consistency, immediately after cooking, strain the hot berry mixture through a sieve, removing seeds and skin particles. The jam cooks over high heat for only about 10 minutes, requiring constant stirring. The cooled dessert will become quite dense and thick, ideal for layering cakes and pastries. From the specified amount of ingredients, you will get one 0.5-liter jar.
