Rose Jelly is a gummy delight made by concentrating water with rose flavours, sugar & agar agar and left undisturbed for an hour. Rose Jelly at home is hygienic & a treat for the kids & adults alike and can be used as a topping for desserts. 
Rose Jelly was on to try list as mittu loves jellies.Though I don’t buy jelly from stores for her,sometimes in parties or when neighbors /friends give jelly I cant say no to her.After using agar agar for a while now and getting beautiful results,I thought to make homemade jelly for my falooda.
Homemade jelly is not only cheap, its so tasty and also you get to know all the ingredients you are adding to make jelly so its safe to give kids.Mittu just loved it and was at the back of me asking for jelly.

I made in bulk and stored as I had planned for making Falooda and reserved the rest for mittu to have it as such.

Notes
- Agar Agar sets beautifully in room temperature itself. But if you want you can refrigerate it.
- Be quick after agar agar mixture is poured, whisk it well then immediately pour to set.
