    I made this for Easter this year. I changed it up by making it family style (3X's recipe instead of single cups. By using mixed berries inside, fresh raspberries outside, YES I only used "JELLO" brand, made a whipped cream with the cheese (all this helped to add sweetness.Then used sliced almonds (walnuts make my teeth itch! It was a hit, everyone wanted the recipe and I was only to happy to share it!

    We made this for a Christmas Eve party. We used the Mascato wine for the adult version and Ginger Ale for the kid version and we mixed the marscapone with sugar and a small amount of vanilla extract to lighten the flavor. The gelatin tasted amazing before setting and so did the cheese after modifying it. We noticed the other reviews about the gelatin tasting bitter and the cheese tasting bland, so we were very careful to add the sweetness in.

    We used these cute little plastic clear crystal cups that you can get at the grocery store to segment each portion of the jello, but the jello ended up not setting. We were heartbroken.

    We followed the recipe to the letter. We did every step based on a timer and at the last step I noticed the jello was still in a very liquid state. No worries, though, I thought. It still has two hours to go and it will set. However, 3 hours in with party guests waiting, I checked the jello and realized it never set!!! It was totally liquid. :o( Probably the day of the event is not a good time to try a new recipe.

    I should add that we used raspberry gelatin from Whole Foods and not the "JELLO" brand of gelatin. I'm tempted to try again with JELLO just because it tasted so good when we sampled it. It would have been a hit if it had set. Darn!

    This recipe was so easy and the presentation is great. I thought the taste was just average; I might add two different berries next time in order to jazz up the flavor.

    This was a simple yet elegant dessert for my party. There are steps to making it so I set the stove timer while I was working on the other parts of my meal.

    I made all the recipes from this episode for a friend's birthday dinner. Everything was a big hit. We used champagne to cut the sweetness and it was very well received.

    As the other reviews, we found this harder to make than it appeared to be. The Prosecco was way too strong in flavor and severly over-powered the flavor of the raspberries. Also, if you are not a fan of the flavor of Prosecco or other sparkling wines, I think a better substitution would be to mix a shot or two of Chambord Liquor (Raspberry Liquor with some 7-Up or Sprite and use that instead.

    Quick and easy, yet elegant! A nice light finish to a summer meal. I made this recipe for a dinner party when a guest who was planning to bring a dessert had to cancel at the last minute. I put this together in a snap and everyone loved it!

    It was sour for my taste. I wonder if I should add a little sugar next time.
