My kids adore this recipe. We usually use sugar-free jello, and my kids can't tell the difference. My husband and I like them too. They are absolutely easy and fun!

Kraft Kitchens Tips

KEEP KIDS SAFE!

For children under 6 years of age, cut JIGGLERS into small bite-size pieces. Children should always be seated and supervised while eating. For more information, visit www.KraftKidsSafe.com.

How to Make Black Gelatin

Prepare as directed, using 3 pkg. (4-serving size each) JELL-O Grape Flavor Gelatin and 1 pkg. (4-serving size) JELL-O Orange Flavor Gelatin.

Creative Leftovers

The gelatin scraps remaining in the pan after the cutouts are done can be refrigerated in a tightly covered container and then tossed with cut-up fruit for a colorful dessert the whole family is sure to love.

These turned out really well. If you actually spray the dish lightly with cooking spray before adding the jello, then the jello will not stick to the pan and you don't have to dip it in warm water. These also set up really quickly too. I would make these for any occasion using different colors and shapes.

Of course these were a hit with everyone! Easy to handle and just a little sticky. I used the leftover pieces to decorate the outside of the plate.

Great idea, not functional. Problem #1: The jello stuck to the pan, even when dipping in warm water. Problem #2: The cookie cutters were not deep enough to cut thru the jello. Problem #3: The color was not black, but a dark, brown rust color. Solution #1: Line the pan with Quick Release Foil, worked like a charm! Solution #2: Use BIG cookie cutters, or a bigger pan to make the jello thinner. Solution #3: Use 3 boxes of black cherry and 1 box of orange to get black.
