JELLO FRUIT WEDGES



Jello Fruit Wedges image

I made these fun little guys for my 14 mo. old nephew and they were perfect! Being so young, it was better for him to eat a "Jello orange" than a real one. These were a hit with the whole family--not just the kids! Originally I found the recipe somewhere online, and I have found that its best to keep to the orange flavors, as other rinds have a more bitter taste that changes the taste of the Jello.

Time 3h15m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

8 medium oranges (at least)
4 (85 g) boxes orange gelatin
2 1/2 cups boiling water

Steps:

  • Slice the fruit cleanly in half lengthwise (through the axis).
  • Carefully remove the pulp while keeping the half rind fully intact.
  • Ensure that the rinds are dry (you can use paper towels to blot them).
  • Set each half rind upright in a muffin pan so you can fill it with Jello.
  • Mix the water with the gelatin (just like you would to make jigglers).
  • You'll want the Jello a little firmer than the normal recipe as you have to slice it in half again.
  • Make sure that the gelatin is well dissolved, and then pour into the fruit before it begins to set.
  • Fill up as high as you can, the Jello will shrink a bit when cooling.
  • Carefully transfer to the fridge and let set for about three hours, per box directions.
  • When the Jello is set, place the fruit open-side down on a cutting board, hold it's shape with one hand and carefully slice in half lengthwise again to form quarters.
  • Be careful not to smash the fruit as you'll want to keep the Jello intact (you may use a serrated knife).
  • Ready to serve!
