Cooking Jello Molds

[Bella_Tink]

I was just wondering if anyone has used metal molds (Wilton pans) to shape jello. I always thought that was a no-no. I am having a hard time finding plastic molds, and I have a party to attend on Friday and need advice. Metal pans ok?

I don't know the brand, but I remember as a tiny child (OK, we're going back a few years) my mum had a metal jelly mould in the shape of a rabbit. But the first time she made a rabbit jelly for my birthday party I refused to let anyone eat it So after that we just had regular fluted ones. I don't think metal would be a problem with a packet jelly, the only thing you'd have to watch is if you make one from sctatch and the juice might react (like tomato reacts with metal).
