Cranberry Candles

12 (6 ounce) empty fruit juice cans
2 (16 ounce) cans whole cranberry sauce
1 1/2 cups boiling water
1 small box cherry Jell-O
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 orange, peeled and diced
1/4 cup walnuts, chopped

Heat cranberry sauce; strain and set berries aside.

Combine hot juice and water; add gelatine, stirring until dissolved. Add salt and lemon juice. Cool; place in refrigerator until thickened enough to mound slightly when dropped from a spoon.

Beat in mayonnaise with rotary beater until light and fluffy. Fold in cranberries, fruit and nuts. Divide mixture evenly into the fruit juice cans. Chill 4 hours or longer.

Unmold on Christmas doilies. To flame, insert small wax birthday candles into tops of cranberry candles and light.
