This is different from anything I've ever tried before so it took a bit of "getting used to." That being said, this is a wonderful, quick, light dessert and would be perfect on a hot summer day. I didn't have any fruit cocktail to serve with it as the recipe stated, but I did substitute a bit of thinned out raspberry jam, which was wonderful with the prominent almond flavor. All in all, great little dessert and very please with the results.

I like it. It's a flexible dish that can be dressed up lots of different ways. I'm also a fan of almond flavoring, and I like that it's not too heavy.

Simple recipe. Can be served at the most elegant of gatherings. Skip the fruit coctail. Use fresh diced fruit such as pear papaya and mango. This recipe is far superior to the "Almond Jelly" recipe on this website.

I love this. :) Add as less gelatin as possible for a wonderful panna cotta.

Very light taste - did the raspberry sauce with some fresh berries - used small flower molds. Very good almond flavor!
