How To Make Rainbow Jello Frosted Grapes
Rainbow jello frosted grapes are SO easy to make. You’ll need the following supplies:
- one box of JELL-O in each color of the rainbow
- about 1 pound of grapes (I used a mix of green and a few purple to help the red and purple colors shine through).
- water
- small tray
- toothpicks or something similar, I used a cake tester

Wash the grapes, remove the stems and then place in a bowl of water. They will stay in the water until taken out and immediately put into the rainbow jello powder.
Open the rainbow jello packs and pour each of the colors into separate dishes or compartments for dipping. Use a toothpick or cake tester to spear each completely wet grape, then twist and cover the grapes in the JELL-O powder trying to completely cover each grape.
Carefully transfer the rainbow jello frosted grapes to the tray and repeat with the rest of the grapes. Try to keep the grapes from touching each other while still wet so the color doesn’t transfer and become mixed on the grapes.
Place the rainbow jello frosted grapes in the refrigerator for about an hour, at this time the rainbow jello powder should have hardened and it will be fine to mix them all together in one bowl.
Time to eat them and enjoy! These are such a tasty treat! If you’ve never tried them, I think you’ll be surprised how tasty and addicting they are!!
The rainbow jello frosted grapes are so vibrantly colored and pretty! They make gorgeous rainbow party food and are even elegant enough for a fun treat to place on your dinner party table.
Kids and adults will all gobble them up! Try showing up to a party with these rainbow jello frosted grapes and I promise you’ll be the favorite guest! They are a conversation starter since most people haven’t ever tried them before.

Oh my….these look so fun for the kids! Oh will be perfect this spring/summer! Have to give these a try!
These look like such a fun treat and I know my children would love them!
What a great treat for my grandsons. They would have fun making these.
These sound so fun! Question- can you freeze these?
I haven’t frozen them before but I don’t see why not!
Can they sit overnight in the fridge or best eaten the day made?
I think they’d be fine overnight!
Can I mixes these grapes in a fruit salad??
They wouldn’t keep the sugary coating if you mixed them in a fruit salad. It would likely dissolve.
