To the list,
I used to make my own "jello" by adding prepared hot granular glue (has
more tack than the pearl glue) to Franklin's liquid hide glue. The finished
product at room temperature had the consistancy of Jello and liquified when the
glue bottle was placed in a container of hot tap water for a couple of minutes.
Never had any problems (adherence or mold) with it.
