Introduce the recipe for Vietnamese coconut jello with a Halloween twist.

Show the collection of silicone molds including skulls, pumpkins, bats, and more.

Add 15 cups of water to a pot (stove off).

Add 2 packets of agar agar powder to the water.

Add 4 cups of organic cane sugar to the pot.

Add 2 tablespoons of salt to the mixture.

Mix the ingredients before turning on the stove to prevent thickening.

Slowly turn on the heat and stir until the mixture is well combined.

Choose food coloring and add a few drops to separate bowls.

After the mixture boils, reduce the heat to low to keep it warm without setting.

Scoop some of the mixture into a bowl and add black food coloring, mixing well.

Pour the black mixture into the skull molds and let it cool slightly before adding more colors.

Prepare the red mixture and pour it into the skull molds, followed by orange for other molds.

Check if the jello has set by gently pushing them out of the molds.

Show the final jello creations, highlighting their appearance and cuteness.

Taste the jello and describe it as coconutty and sweet.
