CRANBERRY-PEAR FRUIT JELLIES

• Bring pears, cranberries, water, 2 3/4 cups sugar, butter, and cinnamon stick to a boil in a 4- to 6-quart heavy pot over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until cranberries burst and pears are tender, about 10 minutes.
• Remove and discard cinnamon stick, then carefully transfer hot mixture to a food processor and purée until smooth, about 1 minute. (Mixture will be thick). Force through a medium-mesh sieve back into same pot, pressing on solids with back of a spoon and discarding solids.
• Put a plate in freezer to chill.
• Bring cranberry mixture to a boil over high heat and add pectin. Reduce heat to moderate and cook, stirring frequently, until very thick and pastelike, about 45 minutes. To test, remove from heat, then drop a teaspoonful on chilled plate and chill in freezer 1 minute. Tilt plate: Mixture should remain in a firm mound and not run. If mixture runs, continue cooking and stirring and repeat test every 5 minutes.
• Remove from heat and immediately pour mixture into prepared pan. Gently tap sides of pan to smooth top and eliminate any air bubbles.
• Cool to room temperature, at least 1 hour, then cover surface directly with plastic wrap and chill until firm, at least 2 hours and up to 1 week.
• Unmold fruit mixture onto a cutting board and remove plastic wrap. Cut into 1-inch squares using a sharp knife. (For easier cutting, rinse knife with hot water, then dry it between cuts.)

• When the clementine/orange jelly feels almost set, use the tines of a fork to carefully make grooves on the surface. Sprinkle the remaining 4 sachets of Vege-gel over the cranberry and pomegranate juice, then heat and stir as in step 2. Leave to cool for 3-4 minutes, then ladle the cranberry and pomegranate juice on top of the set clementine jelly and chill for at least 3 hours to set completely (see Make Ahead).
• When ready to serve, dip the outside of the bundt tin in a large bowl of hot water, about halfway up the tin, then turn out onto a serving plate. Scatter with pomegranate seeds and serve.
