How long is this good in the fridge for? Also can I use strawberry jello instead of the Gelatin so I can skip using real strawberries?

Cover the mousse with plastic wrap and keep in the fridge up to 4-5 days. Yes you can use jello instead.

If you use the gelatin powder how much cold water and boiling water go you use? Thank you.

If you use the powder, you don't have to put it in cold water, just the 1/2 cup of hot water.

The amount of gelatin if using powder is an awful lot, and I think this would not be very flavorful as a result.

Frederick, unflavored gelatin should have no taste or odor so therefore it won't effect the taste at all and will actually absorb the taste of the strawberries.
