The cover of this book really does not do it justice, so do not let the cover deter you from picking this one up!

This book has 100 different Jell-O based recipes for you to try. All of the look really tasty, and some of them look really cool (like the one where you make an igloo!).

The majority of the recipes look really easy and there are quite a few that don't require much effort to make. And when I say easy, I mean easy. I am the most impatient person in the kitchen. If I glance at a recipe that has what I deem too many steps (like more than 5) I won't even think about trying it and looking into trying it at all.

I think I am going to have to get myself some boxes of Jell-O and make some of these tasty treats!

This review is based on an eARC provided by the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for a fair and honest review.

There are a lot of great tips and recipes in here. There are even pics of everything. Unfortunately, there were several recipes that were incomplete in the ingredient section. I'm hoping this was caught and fixed in the final edits prior to publishing.
I received a Netgalley copy for an honest review.
