    We have made this with other flavors of jello, so try some new onces. Be creative. Oh yeah, when we are making the strawberry, we sometimes find the strawberry cool whip, this adds a tasty flare and looks pretty, too! For the 4th July, decorate as a flag, strawberries as the red stripes and blueberries for the square of stars.
