  • 2 teaspoons rose water
  • 1 dash red food coloring, or desired amount

Step 2
Stir sugar, water, and gelatin together in a large pot; bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and cook at a simmer, stirring constantly, for 20 minutes.

Stir rose water and food coloring into the mixture in the pot; pour directly into the prepared cake pan.

Step 4
Cover pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate 8 hours to overnight.
