H playing with his jelly! As much as I would love to say he gobbled it all up and absolutely loved it – I can’t. He was very suspicions and mostly just poked it to watch it wobble! It really is very delicious, which is why I’m posting it. So for all those jelly loving…

Pots de Crème
I promise it sounds more fancy than it truly is. I’ve kept it very simple and have experimented a little by replacing the sugar with maple syrup (a wholefood).
