Anyone remember the Jello Whip N Chill?

[butch-innj]

I'm pretty sure it was from the 60's.
I finally got a recipe for a very light & fluffy cheesecake that has lady fingers around the edge of it and the recipe calls for using Jello Whip N'Chill.
I'm pretty sure its not made any longer and was just wondering if anyone knows of something that can be used as a substitute.
I barely remember it - seems to me that my Mom tried it a few times and we didn't like it.
If I remember correctly it had sort of a mousse texture to it.

Dr. Oetker

makes this product, I believe it is of Canadian manufacture. You can sometimes find it in oddball stores like King's or Whole Foods. It has to be made in a blender.

 

[ptcruiser51]

Regular or sugar-free Jello

can also be whipped successfully. I do this for another recipe. Make it the regular way, just add 3/4 cup cold water instead of a full cup, or substitute the same amount of juice that goes well with whatever flavor you're using. Chill for about 1-1/2 hours in a BIG bowl until it is almost set. Then beat it with that Mixmaster until it gets nice and foamy - it should about double in volume. Put back in fridge and it will set-up like mousse. You can use it to make parfaits or fold-in chopped strawberries, cherries, etc.

How about using Dream Whip. I use it for making a fabulous Dream Whip Dream Pie with chocolate pudding. The recipe is right on the back of the package.

I'm pretty sure that's

all that Whip and Chill was....Jell-O instant pudding with Dream Whip mixed in.

Didn't care for it much then, don't particularly care for it now.

Heres the recipe I want to make........

Pineapple Cheesecake

1 large bag of vanilla Jell-o Whip n Chill.
6 8 oz pkgs of Philly cream cheese
2 cans of crushed pineapple (drained)
2 pkgs of ladyfingers

Method:

Prepare whip n chill according to pkg directions and refridgerate over night.
Cream the sugar, cream cheese and half of the pineapple until smooth.
Fold into the whip n chill mixture.
Cut out a circle of parchment paper to fit a large spring form pan and place on the bottom of the pan and then line the sides of the pan with ladyfingers.
Pour the mixture into the pan spreading evenly and spread the rest of the pineapple on the top.
Chill over night.

I've had this years ago at a restaurant here and the chef would NOT give out the recipe. I even offered to pay for it. Its THAT good. Very light & fluffy and about 3-4" high.
I got the recipe from a friend of a friend of a friend that knew the chef at the place I went.

Now I'm wondering what I can use to substitute for the whip n chill.

 

[maytagbear]

Jello vanilla instant pudding

and Dream Whip should work. Follow directions on the boxes, but use a little less milk together.

Don't agonize, just do it.

When you do the sugar and cream cheese part, be sure the cream cheese is at or near room temperature.

Anyone remember

Jello 1-2-3?

 

[butch-innj]

Lawrence/Maytagbear

Would you fold the dream whip into the vanilla pudding and let that set overnight and then use that instead of the whip n chill?

 

[maytagbear]

You could do that,

or just make the instant pudding and dream whip together in the same bowl with the same beaters.

[laundromat]

Pudding pops

I loved these and am not able to find them anywhere( I guess I'm better off not finding it)any clues??

Space Food Sticks

Man I was addicted to those things.

They tasted like a cross between a Tootsie Roll and a non-chewable vitamin pill. The peanut butter flavor masked some of the chemical taste.

 

[scott55405]

The Dr. Oetker stuff is good-I get it at Cost Plus (World Market). I find all sorts of interesting things there. There was another brand sold in grocery stores I bought a few times in the last 10 years, but I haven't seen that since I've been in CA and don't remember the name.

I remember Whip n Chill well; yes it was very similar to a mousse. Unlike others here we enjoyed it as a dessert now and then. There was always Dream Whip (that's still around, right?) in the house too, at the ready if there was dessert to be topped.

I do remember Jello 1-2-3. I don't know how it did that, but it was pretty cool. I think they did bring it back for a short time, in maybe the 80s or early 90s.

Ah, Space Food Sticks. I recently learned "Tang" is apparently still available. Haven't seen that in a long time either.

Whip N Chill

Whip n chill can be purchased on line at The Vermont Country Store

 

[butch-innj]

jacuralt......

Yes, your right....the Vermont Country Store does have it.
But, I'm not paying the price they want for it.

 

[veg-o-matic]

Ah, yes, the Vermont Country Store. They have everything you would ever want.

For a price.

Thanks Russell for the 123 recipe, how cool-whip is that? I too remember 123 from the early 70s when it debuted and LOVED Space Food Sticks also. Whip n Chill strawberry was fabo.

Anyone Remember:

Celery Jello?

I used to love that stuff. It made great moulded salads for family gatherings back in the day.

Not even Vermont Country Store seems to be able to revive it. It probably wasn't the greatest seller even in the '60s, but those of us who loved it really loved it.

Don't get me started about Morton's tuna pot pies. I miss those worse than I miss any other "lost" food product I once enjoyed.

 

[scott55405]

"Jell-o" was a regular standby in our household, appeared on the table with almost every evening meal. I loved it with celery, carrots, all manner of canned fruits, you name it! Actually still would, I just never seem to remember to buy it. I never knew or remembered though there was an actual celery "flavor" LOL.

 

[ptcruiser51]

Celery Jello!!!

Brings back a big laff for me! About 40 years ago when my ex and I were just dating, our parents went away for a weekend at the same time. Sandy worked in an A&P (supermarket) so she said to come over for supper since we were going out dancing afterwards. She got steaks, lima beans (our favorite), baked potatoes and prepped everything shortly before I got there. She knew my fave is lime Jello, so she made that, too. Come dessert time, we dug in with a spratz of Reddi-Wip. Hmmmm....something not right here. It was OK, but obviously not lime. She went into the garbage to look for the box: Celery! She had just grabbed the first green box on the shelf at the store.

Married her anyway!

 

[mark_wpduet]

I totally don't EVER remember Whip N Chill. It looks good though. Too bad it looks like it has LOTS of trans fat in it.

 

[danemodsandy]

One NIce Thing...

...About Celery Jello was that it reminded me of celery tonic. I'm the biggest Dr. Brown's Cel-Ray junkie on this planet.

Lox, cream cheese, tomato and a slice of onion you can read four-point type through, on a plain bagel, with a couple of half-sours and a Cel-Ray.

Don't tell me this world is all bad...

Vegetable Flavored Jello-

I remember the celery flavor Jello. Wasn't there was a tomato flavor too?
