  1. What a winner of a dessert, I ended up getting 6 serves from the mix so desserts 2 nights in a row. Thank you **Jubes** made for Make My Recipe - Edition 15.
     
  2. Do I need to add the jello crystals?
     
  3. Ya mon, calling for all pineapple lovers! I used the whole 3 ounce box (or 85 grams) of Island Pineapple gelatin and 1 cup of pineapple juice (no water) as I buy the snack sizes all the time (we frequently drink pineapple juice instead of orange juice). This made 7 nice sized servings. I garnished ours with----what else more pineapple! Served with Recipe#295459, Recipe#237207, and Recipe#166409. Thanks **Jubes** for sharing a bit of pineapple heaven with us. Made "while cruising" the Caribean during ZWT5 with the Chow Hounds.
     
  4. I'm in the states and DB was able to find pineapple jell-o crystals, but didn't get sugar-free. This was very quick and easy to make. I got enough to fill 5 ramekins. This is a great recipe for anyone who likes mousse and pineapple. Made for the Epicurean Queens ZWT5: Caribbean.
     
  5. Made for Spring 2008 PAC. This was very good. Desserts like this are some of my favorites. I wasn't able to find SF pineapple jell-o in the states so I used SF orange jell-o, but it was good none the less! I will definitely make this again. Thanks, Julie for posting this!
