I've looked at a few instructions for raspberry jelly and all say sugar, now is that granulated or jam sugar. I use the jam sugar for jam making but never made jelly before.


Any advise before i go shopping, thanks.

    This recipe:- http://www.valentinewarner.com/Recipes/Details/53

    Says caster sugar.

    You need to watch it though... the Americans use the word jelly for what we call jam - and by far the greater number of recipes out there are American.

    So perhaps an English recipe like this one would be better...

    Thanks, I should have perhaps said seedless jam, I just call raspberry jam without the seeds jelly, thought everyone did :o
