(terminological note - how do you denote a dessert consisting of pureed blackberries set with gelatin? You can't use "blackberry jelly" because that refers to the preserve, and really, saying blackberry jello is using a brand name that should be reserved for when you're actually using Jell-o (R) brand products. Anyway, it's that dessert that I was describing above, something at a loss for what to call it).
The English would call it raspberry jelly. Most anything they make involving gelatine is called a jelly. "Jelly" as we know it here in the U.S. usually falls within the realm of jams/preserves in the U.K. You could be generic and call it raspberry gelatine.
There was, many years ago an american song, one line of which went 'It must be jelly cos jam don't shake like that', so americans must have been using the correct terms for jam and jelly!

Were you thinking of:
I wish I could shimmy like my sister Kate She shakes it like jelly on a plate---(OB food) My mama wanted to know last night, What makes the boys think Kate's so nice.
Now all the boys in the neighborhood, They know she can shimmy and it's understood; I know that I'm late, but I'll be up-to-date When I can shimmy like my sister Kate. I mean, when I shimmy like my sister Kate.

Probably not. "It Must Be Jelly ('Cause Jam Don't Shake Like That)" is a song recorded by, amongst others, Glenn Miller.
