Making jelly with cocoa

[Susanwusan]

Hi.  I'd like to make a chocolate jelly using cocoa powder and already-flavoured jelly crystals or blocks instead of gelatine powder.  What sort of flavour would compliment the cocoa, or be disguised by it?  Mostly available flavours are strawberry, raspberry, orange.  Other possible flavours would be lemon, lime, blackcurrant, cherry.

Many of those flavors will work with chocolate, but I'd be worried about the quality of said flavors.

I know what you mean, they'll be really artificial.  I might do it differently.

Plain jelly, flavored with whatever you have and coated with coca would surely be nice.

It reminds me of chocolate lokum.

I plumped for cherry flavour jelly and made chocolate and cherry trifle.
