For a festive touch, consider adding chopped walnuts or pecans to the gelatin mixture before the final chill. If you prefer a less sweet salad, reduce the amount of gelatin mix slightly. To prevent the sour cream from fully dissolving, ensure the cranberry gelatin is properly chilled but not completely firm before folding it in. Use a clear glass bowl to showcase the beautiful marbled effect of the cranberry and sour cream.
