gelee
Savory molded jelly
Gelee is the French word for jelly, used in English primarily in culinary and cosmetic contexts.
In cooking, a gelee is a savory or sweet preparation set with gelatin—more refined than everyday jello: The chef topped the pâté with a shimmering gelee.
In skincare, gelee describes lightweight, gel-textured products.
