Jell-O Mold Competition winners!

Article: Jell-O Mold Competition winners!

The extremely awesome annual Jell-O Mold Design Competition was held in late June, but for those who didn’t attend or didn’t know it was going on (I forgive you this time), photos of the winning colorful jiggly treats have just been released and they do not disappoint. As a precursor, this is not your grandma’s Jell-O (you will see no bits of food floating in a big, bulbous, gelatinous mountain), this ain’t even Bill Cosby’s Jell-O – remember those wimpy letter molds everyone in the commercials thought were so exciting? Girl, please – you’re gonna have to try a little harder than that.
