Not all fruits can be used to make jelly that will freeze. Pineapples or kiwis are definitely not suitable for this dessert. These fruits contain substances that prevent them from solidifying.

How to save liquid jelly

If you see that the gelatin is not solidifying, it can still be saved. To do this, heat the mass. Then add twice as much dry gelatin and, stirring constantly, bring it to dissolve over the fire. Then pour the warm gelatin back into the molds - it should harden.
