Hey Crash, i tried the Rasberry sugarless jello today and it came out real nice. Kinda like a redish tangerine color. Put the package in 2 cups of boiling water and let simmer for 1/2 hour,flushed it with cold water and used the blow dryer on it. Thanks for the tip Crash.

KOOL-AID works well for some of the more subtle shades as it is not as concentrated. Just remember you can always go darker if you don't like the result after the first dipping.

Thanks, another great idea. I would think you would also need to simmer that mix too.

It works cold. Make sure you use the "sugarless" type if you try it.
