Party Jewel Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare the first three Jell-O packages (orange, cherry and lime) using one cup of boiling water and 1/2 cup of cold water for each flavors. Pour each mixture into separate 8-inch square glass pans. Chill overnight until the they are firmed. Combine the lemon Jell-O package, granulated sugar and one cup of boiling water. Stir until the Jell-O and sugar dissolve. Stir in pineapple juice. Chill until it is slightly solidified but not firm. Cut the firm Jell-O into 1/2 inch cubes. Follow the directions in the package to prepare the Dream Whip. Mix the Dream Whip with the lemon Jell-O done previously. Gently fold in the three colors of Jell-O cubes. Spoon into 9-inch springform pan. Chill at least five hours or overnight. Run a knife or a spatula between the edges of the pan to remove sides of cake. Spread additional whipped topping on top and the sides before serving.

• Slide off carefully and let cool.
• Repeat until you have made five thin layers of cake.

• Spread 1/4 cup raspberry preserves over top layer.
• Cover the preserves with more sour cream.
• Alternate layers between raspberry and apricot preserves.
• When all layers are put together, cover with wax paper.
• Lay flat weights on top of it- a few good sized books should do the trick.
• Leave in refridgerator with weight overnight.
• In the morning, trim off rough edges.
• Use Jewel Cake Icing to cover.
• We usually create little flowers on each of the cakes, using a dragee to make the centre.
• Cut into 64 square cakes and enjoy!
