Candy Corn Jello
Fall will be here before we know it. Halloween candy is already stocked on the store shelves and we are decorating for the holiday at our house. The hubby bought a bunch of candy corn when he was the grocery the other day. He will eat bags and bags this fall, his poor teeth, ha ha!
For our July 4th celebrations, one of the favorite desserts we served was our Firecracker Jell-O Cups. They seemed to disappear before any other dessert at both of our parties. The kids love Jell-O, momma loves Jell-O, hubby loves Jell-O so I knew I must make a candy corn version.
Jell-O desserts are always so simple to make and require very little time and effort. These cute little yellow, orange, and white cups can be made in a jiffy for your Halloween party or even a fall dessert.
Grab yourself a box of orange Jell-O, box of yellow Jell-O, and some whipped topping. Making these treats is so incredibly easy. Add on a candy corn for a bit of extra color, if you like.

How cute are these! I thought I was in the minority for loving candy corn because so many people think it’s gross. This is so festive for a fall-themed party, though! Love it.
