Notes

  • Present this jello in shot glasses or mini single-serving cups, or make three layers in a single pan, one after another, and cut them into desired shapes. Plan how you want to present before you start working on the first layer. The rest is super easy.
  • I have used jelly crystals from bakers to make this recipe.
