Coke and Jello. Two of the most beloved food products of all time.
Invented over 100 years ago, “America’s Most Famous Dessert” and Coca-Cola’s “Delicious and Refreshing” logos were plastered from Florida to Washington on roadside buildings almost manically. By the 1950’s, including the internationally successful brands into your backyard BBQ was nearly mandatory. Given the air of sophistication they provided, no self-respecting suburban host would be caught without them.
What better idea than to combine these two American icons for a delightfully colorful (if somewhat wobbly) dessert that will be sure to satisfy the sweet tooth and impress your most finicky of party guests. This how-to video will explain everything you will need to get started. San Jose, California.
