Easy Candy Corn Jello
I hate doing desserts that require something unusual, I buy it and then the rest of the package sits there until I clean out my cabinet and it’s been there for a year and I throw it away. This easy candy corn jello cups for kids recipe is perfect for this October.
If you are having a Halloween party then you’ll definitely want to add these to the menu.
What kind of glasses do I use to make jello cups?
This recipe requires 8 oz juice glasses. Most people have them, but you can buy them here if you don’t. I love mine. My oldest son could drink a whole container of OJ a day so I bought these so he would pour smaller sizes. Here are some like I have, plain, but you can really get some decorative ones that are cute!
I love this recipe because it really is great if you have kids that like to help out around the kitchen. My daughter loves making these. They didn’t last long either. The neighbors gobbled them up.
Ingredients to make jello cups
- orange jello
- lemon jello
- whipped cream- You can make homemade whipped cream, but canned whipped cream that you find in the dairy section of the grocery store works fine for this recipe.
- Halloween candy corn- Perfect to snack on and sprinkle on top to finish off this dessert.

Eggless Dessert Resources
If you are new to my site, then you should know I’m allergic to eggs. I’ve been allergic my entire life so I’ve never been able to eat “normal” cookies and cakes. This recipe is a great sweet dessert that’s eggless!
If you’re like me, then you’re probably on the lookout for more dessert recipes that are egg free. I hate finding a recipe and clicking on it and it has an egg in it!
I started an eggless recipe board on my personal Pinterest page and then realized that I should probably link it to my blog. It’s great finding recipes that are egg free and when I need one I can go look and eat everything in it.
I have an EGGLESS Recipe board on Pinterest and there are a ton of great food recipes. You can follow it here. I pin on it every week because I’m ALWAYS on the lookout for new recipes.
I also have an EGG FREE RECIPE Facebook page that I just started, so there is only one follower right now, me! (Update: It’s over 2400 now!!) Go follow over there and I’ll post any good recipes I find!

Reminder: It would be GREAT if you could leave any feedback in the comment section and give me a 5 star rating. I love it when people rate my recipes for other readers to help when they are looking for something new to make.
