Cran-Orange Gelatin Salad image

After seeing this gelatin salad in a flier, I decided to make it lighter. I like to serve it as a fruit salad, but others may like it for a sweet treat. -Eva DeWolf, Erwin, Tennessee

The salad was really good, but it was a lot of work to make. I'm not sure if I would make it again.

The salad was too firm. I think I used too much gelatin.

The salad was a bit bland. I think it needed more salt and pepper.

This salad was a little too sweet for my taste. I think I'll use less sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of gelatin salads, but this one was really good. The orange flavor was really refreshing.

This salad is the perfect make-ahead dish. I made it the day before my party and it was even better the next day.

This salad was easy to make and turned out beautifully. I used a bundt pan to mold the gelatin and it looked so elegant when I turned it out onto a serving platter.

I'm not usually a fan of gelatin salads, but this one was really good. The orange flavor was refreshing and the cranberries added a nice touch of tartness.

This salad was a hit at my holiday party! The colors were so festive and the flavor was amazing. I used fresh cranberries and oranges, and the tartness was perfectly balanced by the sweetness of the gelatin.
