Conversation Heart Jello Shots
Whether you like the way they taste or not, little candy Conversation Hearts are a vitally important part of Valentine’s Day. They have the power to politely ask for a hug or tell someone you love them without using your words. These Jello Shots look just like the Valentine’s original, thanks this silicone heart mold, some condensed milk and single drops of food coloring that perfectly match the pastel hues of the chalky candies. Even better, this sweet, jiggly take on Conversation Hearts improves their taste, texture and ability to make you a little tipsy. They require more effort than your average Jello Shot—you need to carefully remove them from their mold and take care when writing on each one—but the results are well worth it. Whip up a batch for your V-Day party or just for you and your special someone. Hugs and kisses are sure to follow.
