Method

Soak the gelatine in cold water for 5 minutes, until softened.
Grate a little zest from 1 of each citrus fruit into a bowl and set aside.
Cut the zested fruits in half and squeeze the juice into a pan. Add 100ml of water, the Aperol, sugar and soaked gelatine. Heat gently until the gelatine and sugar have dissolved. Leave to cool.
Peel the remaining grapefruits with a sharp knife, remove the segments and place into the jelly mix.
Pour into 6 to 8 clean glasses or trifle bowls and place in the fridge for at least 3 hours, until set.
Pour the cream over the citrus zest and add the icing sugar. Beat until soft peaks form and then spoon on top of the set jellies.
