Instructions

Line a plain round mould with finger biscuits, carefully put them close together, and form a round or star at the bottom of the mould.
Take a pint of cream and whisk it well with a little sugar and half an ounce of gelatine dissolved in a little water.
Mix with it half a pint of apple, apricot, strawberry, or any other jam or stewed fruit, and set it to freeze.
Cover it with a piece of Savoy cake the shape of the mould, and be careful to fit it exactly, so that when it is turned out it will not be likely to break.
Let it remain in the ice until it is sufficiently frozen.
Turn out and serve.
If fruit is not at hand the cream may be flavored with coffee, burnt almond, vanilla, etc.
Time to freeze, about an hour.
