Götterspeise

Götterspeise is the German name for a dessert made of gelatine or other gelling agent, sugar, flavourings and food colouring, it is similar or identical to jelly or jello and other gelatin desserts. Other German names include Wackelpudding ("wobbly pudding") or Wackelpeter ( German: [ˈvakl̩ˌpeːtɐ] ⓘ; "Wobbly Peter"); green Götterspeise is also known as Froschsülze ("frog jelly"). Götterspeise is usually eaten with whipped cream or vanilla sauce. The best-known flavours are the following: The green Götterspeise is not coloured with woodruff, the latter only gives the dessert its characteristic aroma. Because the coumarin contained in woodruff is toxic, only artificial woodruff flavouring is used in the trade. A special type of Götterspeise is the triple-layered and three-coloured (red, yellow and green) Ampelpudding ("traffic light pudding"), which is made using three layers of separately cooled flavours.
