Rainbow Jello Push-Up Cups
A colorful, crowd-pleasing treat that’s as fun to make as it is to eat!
Ingredients
- 5–6 packages of Jello in assorted colors/flavors (for example: strawberry, orange, lemon, lime, blueberry, grape)
- Boiling water (as directed on each Jello package)
- Cold water (as directed on each Jello package)
- Whipped cream (for topping)
- Sprinkles or fruit pieces (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
-
Prepare the Jello:
Make the first flavor according to the package directions. Allow it to cool slightly before pouring. -
Create the first layer:
Pour a thin layer of the first color into each push-up cup.
Refrigerate until fully set (about 20–30 minutes). -
Add more colors:
Prepare the next flavor of Jello, cool slightly, and gently pour over the first layer.
Repeat this process for each color, letting every layer set completely before adding the next. -
Finish it off:
Once all layers are set, top each cup with whipped cream and a sprinkle of colorful toppings for that extra “wow” factor.
Tips
- Cool before layering: To keep colors crisp and separate, make sure each new Jello layer has cooled before pouring it in.
- Party prep: Make them a day ahead and keep refrigerated until serving.
- Creative twist: Try layering with fruit bits or add a touch of edible glitter for a magical look.
