Categories     dessert

Time 10h15m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

Three 3-ounce boxes pineapple gelatin
Two 12-ounce cans seltzer, chilled
One 15-ounce can mandarin oranges in light syrup, drained
3 cups blackberries
1 cup blueberries
1 1/4 cups mixed berries, for serving

Steps:

  • Prepare the gelatin mix according to the package instructions, using the seltzer in place of the cold water. Allow to cool for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place a mandarin followed by a blackberry in the grooves of a 2.1-quart fluted bundt pan. Repeat to form a circle. Pour in just enough of the gelatin to cover the fruit (about 1 1/2 cups). Chill until set, about 1 1/2 hours, leaving the remainder of the gelatin mix on the counter.
  • Sprinkle the blueberries in an even layer over the firm gelatin. Cover with the remaining mandarin oranges. Top with the remaining blackberries. Pour the remaining gelatin mixture over the fruit. Chill until firm, at least 8 hours and up to overnight.
  • When ready to serve, place the gelatin mold in a bowl of warm water for 2 minutes to loosen. Invert onto a circular serving platter. Fill the center of the mold with fresh berries to serve.

Just in time for Christmas! Layers of red cranberry, green jello, and cream cheese in the middle. Haven't made it yet, but am planning on it! Found in Healthy Cooking from Taste of Home. It says to chill until set but not firm to help the layers from sliding apart when cut.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe fruit: This will ensure that your gelatin is flavorful and vibrant.
  • Choose fruits that hold their shape well: Some fruits, such as berries and grapes, tend to break down easily. Avoid these fruits if you want your gelatin to have a smooth, even texture.
  • Soak your gelatin sheets in cold water before using: This will help them to soften and dissolve more easily.
  • Do not boil the gelatin mixture: Boiling will destroy the gelatin's gelling properties.
  • Let the gelatin mixture cool slightly before adding the fruit: This will prevent the fruit from cooking.
  • Pour the gelatin mixture into a mold and refrigerate until set: The setting time will vary depending on the type of gelatin you are using.
  • To unmold the gelatin, dip the mold briefly in hot water: This will help to loosen the gelatin from the mold.
  • Serve the gelatin chilled: Gelatin is best served cold.

Conclusion:

Fruit gelatin is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little creativity, you can create a beautiful and festive fruit gelatin that will impress your guests.
