    Method

    1. Dissolve the jelly in 100ml boiling water, then whisk in the sparkling water.
    2. Snip the strawberry laces into 2cm pieces and arrange in the base of 6 small glasses. Divide the jelly between the glasses and chill in the fridge for 2 hrs to set.
    3. Meanwhile, make the witches’ legs. Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water. Spoon into a disposable piping bag and snip off the end. Pipe 6 pairs of boots and legs onto a tray lined with nonstick baking paper. Leave to set.
    4. To serve, top each jelly with custard, scatter with biscuits and push 2 legs into each pot.
