How do I make jello that stays firm in squares like in the restaurants? What brand of jelly powder do I use?

you can use any brand, pay attention on composition between water and powder. if too many water then it wont stay firm.

Mac - why you using these toys, eh?

Itsme - yes lianz is right. If you want the firmer squares then you use slightly less water (you may have to experiment a bit) and square molds or a sharp knife coated with icing sugar for sweet or cornflour for savoury, to cut them up.

I tried this once and it turned out as per what you are requesting (no refridgeration needed).

One box your choice of any flavoured jelly
One box - unflavoured gelatine
5 Tbsp. sugar

Dissolve all of the above in 3 bowls of boiling water. Add a bowl of cold water and leave to set.
