  • After your first layer has chilled, pour your clear Jell-O on top of your creamy layer and remove visible air bubbles with a spoon. Place your dish into the refrigerator for another 30 minutes.
  • Repeat the above steps starting with boiling 1 Cup of water for each flavor of Jell-O until all of your layers are complete.
