Patriotic Gelatin Salad
Almost as spectacular as the fireworks, this lovely salad makes quite a "bang" at our July Fourth meal. It's exciting to serve, and our guests loved the cool fruity and creamy layers. This salad really added to my patriotic theme. —Sue Gronholz, Beaver Dam, Wisconsin

The presentation is beautiful (I'm sure you could switch it up for many different occasions.) I HIGHLY recommend following the time for adding the next layer because if you don't when you slice it, the layers will slide apart. Otherwise, it's easy to assemble and the flavor is good.
This was definitely the hit of my July 4th party! Although it takes time to make, it is definitely worth it. Followed the directions as written and it came out perfect!
This is such a fun recipe. Yes, it does take a little time to make, but it is so worth it! I love the white layer. It adds such a nice creamy texture to the other jello layers.
Made exactly as written (except I added strawberries and blueberries) and came out looking just like the picture! Can't believe I had no problems getting it out of the pan. It does take awhile to make. The first layer took the longest because it was still very hot. By the time I got to the last layer, it had almost set in the bowl before I had a chance to add it.
I followed the directions exactly as written - very easy - very pretty - very tasty! it is a great dessert to make. Cant wait to try it with other colors for other holidays.
This is a fantastic salad. Everyone was very impressed by the appearance and refreshing flavors. I put a mixture of fresh strawberry, blueberries, and sweet flaked coconut in the middle of the salad.
Also works at Christmas using green, red and white
