These Patriotic Jello and cream push pops are easy to make and so much fun to look at and eat! Get your kids involved in not only the eating, but the making of the layers of Jello, lemon cream and sprinkles.
Originally, I didn’t know what I was going to use the push pop containers for, so they’ve been in my prop closet for a while. When I was thinking about posting a recipe for Memorial Day, it was actually suggested by my husband. He suggested something based on his favorite dessert that I make for him, pomegranate panna cotta. This is a dessert layered with pomegranate jello and orange panna cotta, which is an Italian cream. But just to make it easier, I am using store bought jello which can be made in minutes and the whipping cream is just heated with gelatin and lemon zest. These patriotic jello and cream push pops will surely be the center of attention at your Memorial Day barbecue. Of course, they don’t just have to be for Memorial Day – 4th of July celebrations are just around the corner! Red Velvet Firework Cupcakes
- If they are not seated and sealed well, the first layer of jello can leak out. Make sure you have something under to catch the drips until they set.** To speed up the process and if you have room, you can chill them in the freezer.
