I made this for Thanksgiving and I thought it was great. I do think it needs more gelatin so I am trying a full pack of the unflavored gelatin for my Christmas batch. I also leave out the nuts.

I just made this recently and though I did not eat it, it earned rave reviews. It is very pretty and a quick put together! I'll surely put this in my pile of 'repeats'!

I have not tasted it yet. I made it for Thanksgiving. However, I don't think the gel (Jell-0) amount in the recipe is correct. Mine had lots of fruit and very little jell.

Is the 3 oz correct or should it be the large package.?

Thanks, Birte Harley
