    Candy Corn Jello cups are a super easy and festive fall treat. Made with pineapple and orange jello, topped with whipped cream, they are to-die-for! 

    Three candy corn Jello cups, with three layers: yellow, orange, and white with sprinkles on top.

    Oh my goodness, I love fall treats. At least once a week, you will find me in the kitchen making some kind of festive dessert.

    A new favorite, these layered Candy Corn Jello Cups are super easy to make. They're made up of pineapple jello, orange jello, and cool whip.

    Since Candy Corn is typically around for the entirety of fall, these treats can be considered Halloween Jello or Thanksgiving Jello. (Maybe even Christmas, if you ask Buddy the Elf.)

    Plus, in my opinion, this tastes way better than actual candy corn! 

    Next time you're at the store pick up a few boxes of Jello and some cool whip and whip up these treats. (Pun intended.)

    Make sure to check out all of our fun Halloween desserts on our Halloween page.

    How to Make Layered Candy Corn Jello Cups

    Ingredients

    • Island Pineapple Jello
    • Orange Jello
    • Water
    • Cool Whip
    • Sprinkles (optional)

    Other Items Needed

    • Clear Dessert Cups
    • Gallon Sized Ziploc Bag (optional)
    Orange Jello and Pineapple Jello boxes on a marble board, with clear dessert cups next to them.

    Directions

    Prepare pineapple Jello according to package directions.

    How to make layered jello cups. Step 1, pour yellow jello into dessert cups. Step two, refrigerate. Step three, pour orange jello into cups, and refrigerate.
    1. Prepare pineapple jello according to package directions and pour evenly into dessert cups. Refrigerate cups for at least 1 hour.
    2. Prepare orange jello according to package directions.
    3. Pour on top of the yellow layer. Again, refrigerate for at least two hours to allow Jello to set.
    4. Top with cool whip. Add sprinkles if desired.

    Pro Tips

    To pipe the cool whip into a swirl, cut the corner off of a gallon-sized ziploc bag. Spoon cool whip into the bag and use it to swirl cool whip into each jello cup.

    As a sidenote: can I just tell you how much I love these small dessert cups? They have been very useful. We use them all the time to make these layered jello treats, yogurt parfaits, or to serve snacks for parties.
