I have seen these Jello-boats all over, usually for pirate themed parties. I thought it would be a fun and easy way to celebrate the Feast of St. Peter. I added a Catholic touch by having the sail bear the Vatican's coat of arms.
I'm pretty sure you can figure out how to make these.
The above were made with the orange's skin. You just need to remove the inside flesh of the oranges. Make the gelatin but use half of the amount of water called for by the recipe (this makes it firmer). Fill each of the hollow orange halves with gelatin right to the top. Place them in a muffin pan to keep them steady. Refrigerate until set. Cut the oranges in half again with a sharp knife.
Cut out the printable below and secure with toothpicks to put up the sails.
