I made this last night, but I must have done something wrong as it didn't set. I tasted a bit anyway and it tasted great. I'll try again. Thanks Jacqueline!

PAC 07 choice. I made this today to take into work and it was huge hit and GONE !!! I only used 1/2 cup of sugar though. I did not want it too sweet cause I work with lot's of elderly people who have to watch sugar intake.

A nice lower fat dessert. I used sugar free jello and, based on Lauralie's review, a little less then 1/2 cup splenda. Next time, though, I'd leave out the splenda all together as I don't feel like it needs it at all. I also used fat free cool-whip. I added the cool-whip in a little too early I think, and mine seperated into a pineapple layer and a coolwhip layer. Still tasty, though. Oh, and this made more like 12 servings for us. 6 would be way too big for us!

This was a very cool and refreshing treat! The temperature has been rising and we enjoyed this dessert a lot. Very creamy with a mild taste of orange, not overpowering at all. I folded in some finely chopped pecans when adding the cool whip. Will make this again soon using a little less sugar and adding some chopped mandarin oranges to add a bit more texture.
