# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • They're sweet enough to feel like dessert but so simple you can make them whenever a craving hits.
  • Perfect for hot days when turning on the oven isn't an option, and honestly, kids will actually choose these over candy.
  • The texture is addictively crisp and juicy at the same time, almost like eating tiny popsicles.
02 -
  • Drying the grapes completely is non-negotiable because wet ones turn grainy instead of juicy when frozen.
  • If you're doing the sugar coating, work quickly because the moisture from the juice starts to dissolve the sugar immediately, so you want them in the freezer as soon as possible.
03 -
  • Pat those grapes completely dry, because moisture is the enemy of that perfect icy texture.
  • If you're coating them with sugar or spices, work fast and get them in the freezer immediately before the juice breaks down your coating.
