      I'm no expert, but I don't think you can add pineapple to gelatin. The enzymes in the fruit won't let the jelly set up

    I imagine this cake falls under the category of: awesome to look at but a disappointing eating experience. Especially the “ocean” part where you get about two thirds gelatine to a third chocolate cake. It might be nicer to use actual jello or prepare the gelatine with a clear juice, lemonade or white wine instead of water.

    A tip for anyone heating up something delicate in the microwave: set the thing to HALF POWER. It'll take longer, but you'll run much less risk of burning or overcooking. :)
    Also, if you're going to do big gelatin project like this, you don't have to buy lots of little boxes. Plain gelatin is available in 1 lb jars - much cheaper!

    I made one of these cakes for my birthday last week. It turned out to be mostly jelly and chocolate and not much cake. Use quality chocolate, don't be cheap. It took me about 2 1/2 days to make. I used 2 cake mixes, 2 packets of milk chocolate, half a packet of white chocolate, half a cup of cream and 1 1/2 litres of jelly. The jelly will be more of a gummy texture. If you aren't a fan of gummy jelly you won't like the cake very much. I bought aeroplane jelly and just added some more gelatine, worked well. I layered the jelly from deep blue to a light aqua so I had to do the separate layers about every 5-10 minutes which was time consuming, but worth it. It doesn't last long in the fridge without the mould. The jelly struggles to hold together because of gravity, it will start to split after several hours, so best to take it out and finish it off just before you serve it.

    He passed away in 1997.

His voice was so monotone and soothing that I absolutely could NOT stay awake. I'm not sure if this was days BEFORE any form of recording device was available to record TV shows or if our family just did not have one but we never recorded Bob Ross and what I went to sleep and missed, just stayed missed but I loved his show. He made it look so easy (it wasn't) and I also loved the little critters he sometimes had in his pocket as he started painting. I miss him.

    I made this cake. I wanted to boost the flavor of the gelatin, so I replaced some of the plain Knox gelatin with lime and blue raspberry Jello (for color as well as flavor). About a half a box worth, so the color didn’t end up being too opaque. I also replaced the first amount of water with Baja Blast Mountain Dew (again for color and flavor). I used lime juice instead of lemon and backed off the amount a bit in order to add coconut flavoring. No need to add extra food coloring. It turned out to be a perfect shade of ocean blue and still transparent enough! :)
