Raspberry-Flavored Gelatin

Store in a cool, dry place in an airtight container. Keep away from moisture.

For a firmer set, use slightly less water than recommended.

Chill until firm for at least 4 hours, or until set.

Add fresh fruit after the gelatin has partially set to prevent it from sinking to the bottom.

Whipped cream

Fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)

Vanilla ice cream

Custard

Other fruits (peaches, mandarin oranges, cherries)

Not dissolving the gelatin completely in boiling water can lead to a grainy texture.

Adding cold liquid too soon can cause the gelatin to clump.

Using acidic fruits like pineapple, kiwi, or papaya can prevent the gelatin from setting properly, as these fruits contain enzymes that break down gelatin.
