For a richer flavor, try using orange juice instead of water when preparing the gelatin. You can substitute the cottage cheese with ricotta cheese for a smoother texture. Garnish with fresh orange slices or maraschino cherries for an elegant presentation. For a vegan version, use a plant-based whipped topping and a vegan gelatin substitute.
