Fry blocks in oil in 4 pans. While the blocks are being fried, press cereal jelly on the top setting. Remove the pan from the pans and transfer 1/2 of the sugar liquid to the jars to form a jelly. Place block in boiling water and stir evenly. When the gelatin turns to a deep amber color, the blocks should be pulled from the jars.
