I love your photos and I can't wait to try this Jello cake. Do you happen to know the best tool for making such clean cuts like you have in your photos? Would a regular knife work?

This isn't the best recipe for someone with a milk allergy (since 1/2 the recipe involves milk). You can't easily substitute soy milk for the sweetened condensed milk because it needs to be condensed and sweetened and I'm not sure of the ratio you would need to do that. You might try coconut milk but again, I'm not sure of the ratio to sweeten it. - maryThe Food Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09964596880945435097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2503994994675408248.post-35047525002945253912012-09-14T18:07:45.023-07:002012-09-14T18:07:45.023-07:00Tried this today.

Unfortunately my milk mixture would not set properly, even though I followed the ingredients to the letter and used the right milk. I even upped the gelatine content and tried chilling it a little first, but it only soft-set. I finally decided to just mix it in with the jello/gelatine layers, which seemed to do the trick.<br /><br />It was delicious, but nowhere near as pretty as yours...any tips for how I can make it work in the future?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2503994994675408248.post-76873738411906345282012-01-12T10:09:28.040-08:002012-01-12T10:09:28.040-08:00I've made this for years and it's always b...I've made this for years and it's always been a hit.
