You can make a whipped jello layer to go on the base or you can just make the mousse layer.
Feel free to change the garnish too. The strawberry syrup and mint leaves are more for garnish than anything else. You can use a different fruit to garnish the top, rather than the kiwi. Mango and lemon go together very nicely and these jello desserts also contain lemonade to improve the flavor. The mango puree sits on top of the individual desserts and the flavors are mouthwatering together.
