Jell-O and its Many Shapes

The other day I came across an article in the Wall Street Journal talking about sculpting Jell-O into a variety of shapes and colors. This got me thinking about how versatile Jell-O. You don’t need an oven so it’s great for the summer months; they come in sugar-free and have a variety of flavors that fit almost anyone’s taste.


Think about it. Who would want to turn on a hot oven in sweltering 90 degree heat? As much as I love to bake, I do not want to make the house any hotter. This is where Jell-O desserts and snacks comes in. 

Jell-O molds come in all types of shapes so they are perfect for any occasion, ranging from fun things like zombie brains to hearts, stars and Tupperware models for drinks. Jell-O is also a great project if you are looking for something to do with kids. There isn’t too much mess, and is a healthy alternative to ice cream and cookies. 


All you need to do is check the web or your local home goods store for Jell-O molds, pick up a variety of flavors and you are on your way to crafting a delicious Jell-O dessert.
