To make the strawberry glaze:
Mix the water, sugar, and cornstarch in a saucepan. Cook on medium heat, stirring until thick. Stir in the jello and the red food coloring. Cool completely in refrigerator.

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
I have made this with fresh raspberries as well. Just substitute the strawberry Jello with raspberry flavored and fresh raspberries. I have also used Raspberry pie filling for my glaze with the fresh raspberries. You can also cheat on the glaze and buy the store bought stuff in the fruit section.
