For a richer flavor, consider using strawberry puree in place of some of the cold water. If you're short on time, you can use a store-bought angel food cake. To prevent the cake from becoming soggy, add it to the gelatin mixture just before it sets. Feel free to experiment with other fruits such as blueberries, raspberries, or peaches.

Add the partially thawed frozen strawberries and cold water to the gelatin mixture. Stir gently to combine. (Approximately 1 minute)

While the gelatin mixture is chilling, prepare the angel food cake. Remove the crust and cut the cake into bite-sized cubes or tear into small chunks.

Once the gelatin mixture has reached the desired consistency, gently fold in the angel food cake pieces and thawed whipped topping. Be careful not to overmix, as this can deflate the whipped topping.
