Method
Using a spoon, carefully scoop out the orange flesh (see hint) without breaking the peel.
Make the jelly according to the packet instructions. Pour the raspberry jelly into two orange-skin halves and pour the lime jelly into the remaining orange-skin halves.

Remove the oranges from the fridge and cut them in half again (forming quarters). Insert a ‘sail’ into the jelly of each orange quarter to make a small sail-boat.
Hint:
This is an easy, affordable and colourful birthday party idea. You can either incorporate the leftover orange flesh into a carrot salad or add it to a fruit salad.
