Grease the baking dish with a layer of oil. Pour gelatin into baking dish and use a spoon to skim off all the bubbles. You want to do this thoroughly as bubbles will leave a mark on the jello if left to set.

Put in the fridge and let set for 30-40 mins or until the jello is firm to the touch but still a tiny bit tacky.

Repeat the above steps with the yellow color and last of all, the red color. Be sure to get the colors in the right order, blue, then yellow, then red, or the rainbow won't appear!

When the rainbow jello is completely set, use a sharp knife to loosen the edge around the baking dish. Then use your fingers to gently pull the jello away from the side. It should be easy to detach. Cut out desired shapes and then remove one by one from the dish to serving tray.
