Cantaloupe Lime Popsicles
Easy to make – as long as you have a Popsicle mold, which are easy to find in supermarkets, big-box stores, even dollar stores. Then, all you need is a super-ripe cantaloupe, freshly squeezed lime juice, sugar, and water. And time in the freezer. Adults and kids will love these. Get the recipe for Cantaloupe Lime Popsicles.
Cheesecake Lime Dip
This dessert dip is a little sweet and a little tart, made by swirling homemade lime curd into what is essentially a cheesecake batter made with cream cheese. Choose your dippers such as fresh fruit, pieces of pound cake, or even pretzel rods. Watch your portions to keep it low calorie. It’s heavy on fruit, so go light on the dip. Even a smaller serving is satisfying. Get the recipe for Lime Cheesecake Dip.
Strawberry Granita
Strawberries, water, and sugar, along with time in the freezer, create this delectable and refreshing strawberry granita. No ice cream maker needed. Get the recipe for Strawberry Granita.
Cold Brew Latte Pops With Crushed Chocolate Covered Espresso Beans
Cold brew is not just for drinking! On a hot day, when you need a pick me up in the middle of the afternoon, nothing satisfies like these coffee flavored popsicles. Crushed chocolate covered espresso beans are added for extra coffee value. Get the recipe for Cold Brew Latte Pops.
Champagne Gelee With Raspberries
Eat your champagne? Yes, you can! Here we lightly gel sparkling wine with gelatin, and suspend raspberries within the edible, golden dessert. Perfect for a special celebration. Get the recipe for Champagne Gelee With Raspberries.
Papaya Lime Sorbet
Our Papaya Lime Sorbet is very creamy in texture thanks to the rich, smooth texture of ripe papaya itself. The fresh papaya is sweet and perfectly complemented by the sour, acidic lime. You do need an ice cream maker for this. Get the recipe for Papaya Lime Sorbet.
Fresh Strawberry Tart
If you love fresh strawberries and want to make a dessert, look no further. These berries are kept fresh and nestled in a buttery crust. The glaze is made from additional puréed and strained berries. It’s strawberries maximized! Get the recipe for Fresh Strawberry Tart.
Angel Food Cake
Angel Food Cake is naturally low calorie, as it contains no fat. Its loft, tender texture and sweet flavor is created by whipped lots of egg whites and stabilizing with sugar. Serve with fresh fruit, or a scoop of sorbet. Get the recipe for Angel Food Cake.
Cannoli Cream With Berries
If you are a cannoli fan, or even if you are not (like me) you have to try this dessert. Lightly sweetened ricotta, orange zest, and shavings of dark chocolate combine to dollop on fresh berries. Elegant and so easy you barely need a recipe. Get the recipe for Cannoli Cream With Berries.
