I have actually had a request to make one of my 1950s jello experiments for a barbeque this weekend. For real. To eat. It just so happens that I have some acquaintances who love Jell-O desserts and some of the more bizarre gelatins (like lime jello with shrimp).
Oh Joy! What to choose?

I’m dying to make one of these Chef Salad molds because they are easy and have a good Wow factor.
These bit-sized little gems are adorable but might be too labor intensive. Aren’t they cute?
Another one with a nice presentation.
I do know I will NOT be making one of these;
The green, gelatin glazed glob is a ham. *shudder*
The formerly blogged about Pork “paper weights”
Don’t know…don’t want to know.
