    To serve, unmold each gelatin cup onto dessert plate; top each with 1/4 cup whipped cream. Garnish with mint.

  • Small reusable plastic containers or mini tart pans can be used instead of the custard cups.
  • Keep it simple and use 1 1/2 cups raspberries instead of three kinds of berries.
  • Spike the gelatin with 1 tablespoon vodka for a martini-flavored treat!
