    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.

        Do you have to wait for the yellow to set before you add the orange?

      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.
