You must have known that rainbow jello was in the works. First, we shared a recipe for cute Rainbow Donuts and I’ve been sharing a few recipes that use jello like melon kiwi layered jello cups and swimming peeps jello cups. So it’s time to combine rainbows and jello :)
Can I let you in on a secret? I didn’t like rainbows or things in rainbow order until recently. And by recently I mean, until I made those ridiculous rainbow donuts. Now I want to make everything rainbow colored! I even ordered a rainbow cookie cutter and I’ve been having dreams about rainbow dipped twinkies. Weird.
Well, my ways have changed and I’m on board with rainbows. And fluffy kitties and unicorn poop cookies.
Eww, just kidding. But unicorn poop cookies (see here on pinterest) are a real thing, and being rainbow colored, I now like them, except someone had to go and ruin them by calling them unicorn poop cookies.
This rainbow jello is super easy to make, and it’s really delicious. It’s great that jello comes in so many different flavors. For the yellow layer, instead of having to get lemon jello, which I’m not sure lemon jello would be very good, they offer island pineapple, which is what I used and it’s tasty! I also saw apricot, melon fusion, peach, and tropical fusion. Just pick the colors and flavors you want, and you’re ready to make rainbow jello!
