Enjoy Cinco de Mayo with the kids!

A huge THANK YOU to my sister, Brenda, for creating these yummy JELLO-O Jiggler margaritas for the kids in the newest blog post.




What could be more fun for the kids (and the adults) than some JELL-O Jiggler Margaritas to help celebrate Cinco de Mayo?

Our inspiration comes from not only the awesome tile molds that look just like bar ice cubes and the new citrus mold offered by DTC but also from the Acrylic Margarita Cups available from Cakes Under the Influence.

First get all of your supplies collected.



Make your JELL-O Jiggler recipe per package instructions plus on packet of Knox Unflavored Gelatin if you want it firm enough to stand the lemon/lime on the edge.  Carefully pour into the tile and citrus molds; refrigerate until set.



Got surface bubbles?  If you stir too fast and get bubbles and are too lazy  to pull out your torch/lighter like I am, grab some plastic wrap and gently lay over the area with bubbles and peel back. The bubbles come right off on the plastic.



While you are waiting on your items to set take  your Acrylic Margarita Cups from Cakes Under the Influence and place a small bead of gel around the rim and then sprinkle with your sugar sprinkles.



Once the JELL-O sets, gently flex the mold to the the JELL-O Jiggler to release from the mold.  Repeat until you have all the tiles and Lemon/Limes  you want.



Now you need to pour your margaritas into the Acrylic Margarita Cups available from Cakes Under the Influence.
