Tips & Warnings

on 12/30/2006 Jell-o Shots --> use little paper "candy cups" that you can find at the dollar store or any party store, they are inexpensive. If you are unsure as to what candy cups are, just think of the ketchup cups at your local fast food resturants; they look just like them. Pour your Jell-o mixture into each, let set and serve. Your guests can just suck the jell-o shots right out and/or just squeeze the bottom and collapse the cup and take the Jell-o shot!!!

on 9/2/2006 Instead of ice cube trays or plastic cups, use Reynolds Foil Baking Cups (discard the paper liner) pour Jell-O right into cup, then when ready to serve, just peal away foil and shoot. Always a big hit at our parties.

on 8/8/2006 Don't use water at all, just substitute cheap vodka for the water called for on the back of the Jell-O package.

on 4/3/2006 Instead of using a cake pan or ice cube trap, use little plastics shot cups. They're easier to serve and lots of fun.

on 11/22/2005 Instead of using an ice cube tray, use a cake pan, then the shooters can be cut to and size needed.
