You'll need

Items needed to answer the question, How do I whip up Crystal Ball Jello Parfaits. Items include:  Jello powder  Hot water  Assorted fruits  Whipped cream
  • Jello powder 1 box
  • Hot water 2 cups
  • Assorted fruits as desired
  • Whipped cream optional, for topping

Take note
Be careful while working with hot liquids and sharp knives. Make sure to let the Jello set properly before adding the next layer to achieve those perfect layers.

1

Prepare the Jello

Start by preparing the Jello according to the package instructions. You can choose different flavors to create a vibrant and colorful dessert. Make sure to mix the Jello powder with the specified amount of hot water and let it cool slightly before pouring into individual glasses or serving bowls.

2

Refrigerate and set

Place the glasses or bowls with the Jello mixture in the refrigerator and allow it to set completely. This usually takes about 2-4 hours, but it's a good idea to check the package instructions for the specific Jello brand you're using. You can put a toothpick or a knife into the Jello to check if it's ready. If it comes out clean, it's set!

3

Add the next layer

Once the first layer of Jello has set, it's time to add the next layer. Repeat the process of mixing and pouring a different color or flavor of Jello on top of the first layer. You can go as wild as you want with different combinations! Just make sure to let each layer set before adding the next one.

4

Create the 'crystal ball'

To give it that 'crystal ball' effect, gently place a small, round fruit (like a blueberry or a grape) in the center of the second layer while it's still slightly liquid. This will create a suspended effect, as if the fruit is floating inside the jiggly ball of goodness.

5

Chill and serve

After adding all the layers and the 'crystal balls', pop the glasses or bowls back into the refrigerator and let them chill until fully set. This usually takes another 2-4 hours. Once set, your Crystal Ball Jello Parfaits are ready to be served and enjoyed! Gently top them with whipped cream or fresh fruit for an extra touch of yum.
