Cute idea! Unfortunately, I tried using the Nerds, but they started changing the color of the jello. Then, I tried crushed pineapple, but they floated in the jello...I eventually used chopped pears (strawberries were out of season). I put in the Swedish Fish, but they too turned into gummy mess...it looked like a fish that died in the tank that's molding... The kids liked the jello, but not the fish..

The first time I made it, I doubled the recipe and it didn't quite turn out. The second time, I followed the recipe with a few changes...I added cranberries, used applesauce for 1/2 the oil and also substituted brown sugar for some of the granulated sugar. I came out super super moist. I sliced up a loaf to bring to work (before I end up eating the whole thing myself) My kids like it and asked for more. Tonight, I'm making another batch, without the nuts (for those who are allergic or don't care for nuts) and substituted applesauce for all of the oil...we'll see how this batch turns out! I'll be sticking them in the freezer and bring them back out for the holidays!
