FRUIT CREAM

Steps:

• Cut fruit into small pieces (I usually dice them). Grapes can be cut horizontally into 3 parts.

• Consume on the same day as it would end up turning sour.
• The consistency of this dessert should not be liquid. The fruits should be well coated with the cream.
• You can also add a number of variations of your choice such as chocolate chips or cocoa powder or almond essence--lots of other things, but we usually enjoy it plain.
• If conscious about calories in cream , you can also substitute the cream with beaten yogurt.
