I have a Host who is going to have a Fruit Tray and I offered to bring a dip - any suggestions? What about the Butterscotch Dip?
 
I like the hawaiian fruit dip. I think it is in All the best.
 
A really easy one is 1 8 oz. strawberry yogurt mixed with 1 8 oz. tub strawberry Cool Whip.The spread from the Taffy Apple Pizza is also a good fruit dip.
 
The Cool and Creamy Chocolate Fondue in the All the Best is also a good one...even for fruit.

thanks for your helpI have given my Host a few choices for her fruit dip now - Thanks!
So she is having about 17 people at the Show. We are doing a Brownie Trifle, and one other recipe - should a do a dip to go with crackers, or a pizza (on the Medium Bar Pan)?

(I used to only do one recipe per show...my Hosts LOVE having more variety. I would do some of these recipes ahead of time)....


TIA - Jenna

A dip as the second item would be very easy. You could prepare it before you leave for the party, putting it in your SA. That way you don't take the time at your demo.

What does it mean?Does Strawberry Preserves mean Strawberry Jam? (can you tell I don't do much cooking/baking?) :)

Close to jam - preserves is kind of between jam or jelly.

Jelly is like fruit juice gelled,
Jam is like fruit pulp or crushed fruit,
Preserves is chunks of fruit in a syrup or jam.

The closest in probably jam...
