Want to cut down on cake preparation time? Make this delicious jelly layer in advance and freeze it! The confit stores wonderfully in the freezer, but remember: keep it away from strong-smelling foods like fish or garlic, so as not to spoil the delicate berry aroma. For this recipe, berries that have lost their shape slightly are ideal, while the most beautiful ones should be saved for decorating your culinary masterpiece.

Thoroughly rinse the raspberries. Prepare a saucepan for further cooking.

Place the fresh berries in a saucepan and sprinkle them evenly with sugar.

Place the saucepan with raspberries and sugar over medium heat. Pour in the water and bring to a boil, then simmer the berry mixture for about 15 minutes. Afterwards, transfer it to a fine-mesh sieve.

Carefully strain the raspberries through a sieve to obtain a smooth puree. The remaining pulp is no longer needed and can be discarded.

Add the gelatin to the raspberry puree and mix thoroughly. Allow the gelatin to swell for 5 minutes, then stir again until completely dissolved.

Line the mold with plastic wrap. Pour the berry-gelatin mixture into it and place it in the freezer for at least 1 hour to set.

If you plan to store the confit in the freezer for later use, do not remove the film. Wrap the jelly with it and place it in the freezer compartment. When the layer is needed for a cake, it can be immediately placed on the cake layers without thawing, which is very convenient!
