Fruit Dessert Recipes"Trying to figure out what to do with all
that fruit?!?"
These Italian fruit dessert recipes center around a fresh fruit as the main
ingredient.
If you are like me I very rarely buy fresh fruit intending to cook with it. I usually buy pounds of fruit because the store had a sale, the colors looked so pretty, and I thought I'd eat five pounds of fruit in a few days. Next thing I know the fruit grows fuzz. And the guilt sends me scrambling for recipes. These Italian dessert recipes will be centered around a fresh fruit. Some are Italian cakes, cookies, Italian drinks or tart recipes. The one common denominator is - these recipes use fresh fruit and yet, have a tiny bit of Italian flavored flair.

Which means the manufacture and/or development of the products, and its ingredients, did not involve, or have involved, the use of any animal product,
by-product or derivative.
Vegan Italian dessert recipes use very few ingredients and focus on the fruit itself which is intensified with about 3-4 ingredients. Strawberries With Marsala Recipe Poached Pear Recipe Back to the top of fruit dessert recipes.
I love sugar and I eat dessert EVERYDAY!
Ok, not MASSIVE amounts. But I do have to finish off the evening meal with a
little sweet something. When I was a kid my health conscience mother would ration my Halloween candy. Her mantra was, "white sugar will kill you". But my Italian grandma always told me, "Everybody needs a little bit of sugar." :-) So, to get my October Halloween sugar fix I will make the traditional Italian cookie recipe, Venetian Bones of the Dead. Italians make these for the Day of the Dead on November 2nd. So - hey, our holiday in America - Halloween is the closest. So - while the neighborhood is slamming down a bunch of gross mass produced candy on October 31st, I'll have a real goodie. Oh yeah, I'll have to post it too! (Eventually!) You know how it is. Work. Kids. Clean. Cook. I'll see if Bones Of The Dead is in my grandma's first recipe file she started when she married in 1932. Most of the recipes on my site came from her influence. If they aren't in her file - then I got them from her friends. And the remainder I experimented with adapting her style. I hope she looks down and smiles this Halloween. Lisa
