Bandung Konnyaku Jelly

DH's ex-colleague initiated a BBQ get-together.  The gathering falls on a Saturday, which is also a busy weekend for us, so I decided to do something really simple.  With kids in mind, jelly was the first thing that came to my mind.  I'm sure they won't say no to jellies.

Since I ran out of Ribena and have a new bottle of rose syrup, I turned them into jellies.

I made them in small jelly moulds but unfortunately I've accidentally deleted the pictures while transferring them from the SD card to my harddisk. K asked for the recipe but it is a tedious process to text her via sms.  So I made these again for DD3's birthday celebration in school, just so I can take a picture of it again and post it in my blog.
