It took me a long time to decide what to make for Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith. Initially I wanted to make a knife, but then didn't want to put in the time/effort to make a knife and didn't know what I'd do with a knife. Regency era clothing was another idea, but again didn't want to put in the time/effort and didn't know what I'd do with a costume piece. So I finally decided on food, a jelly, and found a recipe for Flummery from a cookbook called, Dinner with Mr. Darcy (how appropriate).
Flummery is a milky almond jelly and would have been something that could have been served at the ball Mr. Bingley's hosts at Netherfield. I don't have any fun gelatin molds so I poured my mixture into snowflake molds and the rest into a small round bowl. The jelly is okay, I preferred the warm almond flavored milk and might start adding almond flavor to warm milk and drink that as an alternate to hot cocoa. Yum.
