I made this with all fresh strawberries and strawberry jello. I served it as a dessert on a hot summer day and everyone loved it and wanted the recipe. My daughter used the fruit cocktail and my two grandsons ate every bit.

YUM! IT TOOK A WHILE FOR IT TO SET BUT IT WAS WORTH IT!I SUGGEST TRYING IT WITHOUT THE SUGAR FREE JELLO BUT INSTEAD USING THE REGULAR KIND!

Real easy to make. My kids love jell-o and it's a very good healthly little treat they can have anytime. I'd recommend anyone try this, you'll love it too!

This is the best recipe for party. you can use strawberry instead of fruit cocktail. If you want to cut this very clean, put the knife in the warm water for few minuites and use it.
