FAQs
Can I use regular gelatin instead of Jello powder?
Regular gelatin lacks the added sugar and flavor found in Jello powder, so the dessert may not be as sweet or flavorful. It’s best to use flavored gelatin powder for the intended taste.
Why is chilling the bowl and beaters important?
Chilling the bowl and beaters helps keep the cream cold during whipping, which makes the cream thicken faster and hold stiff peaks for a better texture.
