I mean, how will you make the whole/sliced pineapple not visible in the jello?


Answers:

I'm afraid you really can't. The Jello made with canned pineapple gels and that which is made with fresh pineapple doesn't. So it would stay very watery if you used fresh pineapple.

There's a enzyme in the fresh pineapple (bromelain enzyme) that degrades the gelatin protein. During the canning process, pineapple is heated to a temperature high enough to denature the bromelain enzyme, so it doesn't interfere with the gelatin when you put it in Jello.
