Fruit is really a sweet treat on its own. But when the occasion calls for something special, this light and fluffy dip is just the ticket. Little ones can practice their patterns as they help you skewer the fruit. Use a wide variety - maybe your kids will even try something “exotic” like kiwi or mango when dipped into this scrumptious concoction.
