Ingredients

For the jelly:
- 150 g cherries (fresh or frozen)
- 50 g sugar
- 100 ml water
- 1 tablespoon heaped cornstarch

For the pudding:
- 500 ml Joya Natur soy milk (preferably with calcium)
- 1 packet vanilla pudding powder Dr.Oetker
- 80 g sugar

For decoration:
- Dark chocolate glaze from Dr.Oetker
- Fresh cherries (optional)

Preparing the cherry jelly

1. Preparing the cherries: Start by washing the cherries and cutting them into smaller pieces. If using frozen cherries, let them thaw before use.
2. Boiling: In a saucepan, add the chopped cherries, sugar, and water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Allow to boil for about 15 minutes until the cherries release their juice.
3. Adding the cornstarch: In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with a tablespoon of cold water. Add it to the cherry mixture, stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Let it boil for another 5-6 minutes until the jelly thickens. Turn off the heat and let it cool.

Preparing the pudding

1. Preparing the base: In a bowl, combine the pudding powder with the sugar and 500 ml of soy milk. Mix well to avoid lumps.
2. Cooking in a double boiler: Place the bowl over a pot of hot water (double boiler) and stir continuously. The pudding will begin to thicken after a few minutes. Make sure it doesn’t stick to the bottom of the bowl.
3. Pouring into glasses: Once the pudding is well thickened, remove from heat and pour it into glasses, alternating between layers of pudding and jelly. Do this while the pudding is warm to ensure that the layers settle nicely.

Decorating and serving

1. Adding the glaze: Once the pudding has cooled slightly, you can add the dark chocolate glaze on top. This will provide a delicious contrast to the sweetness of the cherries.
2. Finishing touches: Decorate with a few fresh cherries on top for an extra touch of color and flavor.

Chef's Tip

To achieve the perfect pudding, make sure to stir constantly during the cooking process. This will prevent lumps from forming and ensure a smooth and creamy texture.
