"I found this on Tasteofhome I made them before using real sugar and I loved them so now I tryed them with no sugar becasue for the diabetic people that come to our house for Christmas holidays and they turned out really great so I am putting the recipe here for diabetic people that cant have sugar, now they can have treats to for Christmas! If you want to make them with real sugar use same amount of the real sugar instead of Splenda and use the gelatin with real sugar. The photo is with real sugar when we made with grape, cherry and orange jello"
