Family really liked it, the color was BEAUTIFUL!!! Thinking of trying different flavors and colors. Thank you for posting-will definately make again! -
I like the idea, but not the artificial flavors and colors in Jello. Might be decent using beet juice for color, and a different sweetener. I'll try a more natural version on my own. Cute idea though.

No JELLO, Beet juice for color, tart cherry juice, stevia.
