List of grass jelly plants

Grass jelly is a gelatinous dessert that is usually made from a plant in the mint family called Platostoma palustre. It and similar desserts can be made from other grass jelly plants. Some are also used for making beverages.

There are two main types, green grass jelly and black grass jelly. Green grass jelly plants include Premna trichostoma and Cyclea barbata, while black (also called janggelan) includes species like P. palustre

In Indonesian, grass jelly plants are called tanaman cincau. In Javanese, these plants are called camcao, juju, or kepleng and in Sundanese they are called camcauh or tahulu.

There are other plants that could possibly be used for making grass jelly but are not currently known to be used as such. For example, Premna puberula leaves have high pectin content (30–40%) that is similar to the other species used.
