# Directions:

01 - Dissolve strawberry gelatin in 1 cup boiling water, stirring until completely dissolved. Stir in 1 cup cold water. Pour into a shallow dish and refrigerate for 1 hour until set. Repeat process with lemon gelatin in a separate dish.
02 - Beat heavy whipping cream in a mixing bowl until soft peaks form. Set aside for later use.
03 - Beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract in another bowl until smooth and creamy. Gently fold whipped cream into cream cheese mixture until well combined and no streaks remain.
04 - Once both gelatin flavors are fully set, cut into 1/2-inch cubes using a sharp knife. Keep strawberry and lemon cubes separate.
05 - Layer ingredients in each jar: start with cream cheese mixture, add strawberry gelatin cubes with diced strawberries and marshmallows, add another cream layer, then lemon gelatin cubes with pineapple and more marshmallows. Finish with cream mixture on top.
06 - Refrigerate assembled parfaits for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to meld and layers to set properly.
07 - Just before serving, top each jar with whipped cream, place a marshmallow bunny candy on top, and sprinkle with pastel sprinkles for festive decoration.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • Everything can be prepared the night before, leaving you zero stress when guests arrive
  • The layers look stunning through clear glass, making even simple ingredients feel special
02 -
  • Gelatin that is not completely set will bleed into other layers, turning your beautiful stripes into muddy colors
  • The cream cheese mixture needs to be soft enough to layer but thick enough to hold everything in place
03 -
  • Run your knife under hot water between cutting different gelatin flavors to prevent color transfer
  • Layer everything when the gelatin is cold but the cream mixture is at room temperature for cleanest stripes
