If you don't know about this wonderful summer dessert, you are missing out on a wonderful treat. It is fabulous for most any kind of fruit but best on cantelope, honeydew and strawberries. Slice up whatever fruit you want in bite size pieces. Arrange on a platter or other serving tray. Place the fruit dip in a separate container in the center of the tray and dip away.
No double dipping!
