Golden Glow Gelatin Mold Food

FESTIVE FRUIT GELATIN MOLD

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.

CHERRY-WALNUT GELATIN MOLD

Steps:

• Drain the cherries and pat dry. Break the walnuts into pieces, then stuff each cherry with a nut.
• Combine the Jell-O and 2 cups boiling water in a bowl and stir until dissolved. Stir in the sherry and orange juice.
• Lightly spray a 6-cup gelatin mold or glass bowl with cooking spray. Pour in the gelatin mixture and scatter the stuffed cherries and remaining walnuts evenly in the mold. Cover and refrigerate until set, about 8 hours or overnight.
• Before serving, place the mold in a bowl of hot water to loosen the gelatin, about 5 minutes. Gently invert over a platter to release.

AMBROSIA GELATIN MOLD

Steps:

• Dissolve gelatin in boiling water in large bowl. Stir in 1/2 cup cold water and coconut milk. Refrigerate, uncovered, until slightly set (mixture should have consistency of egg whites), about 1 hour.
• Lightly coat 12-cup mold or nonstick Bundt pan with cooking spray. Whisk slightly set gelatin until well blended, then fold in marshmallows, oranges, and cherries. Pour gelatin mixture into mold and refrigerate, uncovered, until set, about 4 hours. (Can be refrigerated for up to 2 days.) When ready to serve, invert onto large plate.
