Our Thoughts
Oh there are many things I loved about these. Starting with how customizable they are, how easy they are to make, that they only require one specific ingredient. We used a banana about ready for banana bread, a kiwi that had been in the drawer awhile, some frozen blueberries, and a few fresh strawberries (you really don't need much fruit!). I had hoped to throw in some frozen peaches and pineapple too but we just ran out of room! I love that I could make these in about any color combination (like strawberries and blueberries for the 4th). I was really excited about these.
Luke (the person who actually ate it) was less enthused than me. Turns out he no longer likes kiwi (he did at one point...) and really just wanted the frozen fruit. He was picking out the blueberries pretty quick. BUT he did eat the whole thing other than the drips that fell on the steps and the kiwis that he "gave to birdies" (i.e. threw in the grass). Whatever. I'm going to keep making them for him as needed. He gets a cold treat. I get more fruit in him. Win win.
