- Pour mixture in a 9x9-inch square pan and let it cool to set.
- Using a knife, cut through the coffee jelly horizontally and then vertically to make cubes. It could be big or small cubes.

Notes
- Note 1. Gelatin powder can also be used and I would recommend using Knox but you may have to adjust the amount, 1 envelope =2 cups of water, so you will need 3 envelopes. The procedure is also different. You just dissolve the gelatin in hot water or hot coffee and refrigerate for 2 hours or until set.
- Note 2. I only used a small can of sweetened condensed milk (168ml) while I added 2 packs of cream (=500ml). This is a personal preference as we prefer desserts not to be overly too sweet. You can adjust this if you like it sweeter.
- Note 3. I added sugar to the coffee jelly, again a personal choice. You can adjust or skip it altogether if you like.
