Different Fruit Appetizers to Serve at Your Restaurant

Here are a few options to add to your menu:

• Cucumber Melon Salsa
• Bruschetta and Figs
• Balsamic Roasted Grapes
• Cheesecake Stuffed Strawberries

Health Benefits of Adding Fruit Appetizers to your Menu

Adding fruit appetizers to your menu can add healthy options as opposed to just your average deep-fried snacks. 

Because fruit is rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals, adding extra servings of fruit into a daily diet is good for your health. Fruit is also packed with antioxidants. Fruit is perfect for the summer because the high water content can help keep customers hydrated and feeling refreshed. That means they leave happier and healthier!

Light, Refreshing, and Simple

Making fruit appetizers can be a great way to add something light and refreshing to your menu. It can also be extremely simple by using frozen fruit. The nutritional value is the same as fresh, and it has a great shelf life. Using frozen fruit can help cut prep time and still offer a refreshing appetizer all year round.

Classic Summer Salad With Fruit 

If you’re looking to make a classic summer fruit salad, we recommend cutting up some strawberries, watermelon, cantaloupe, pineapple, grapes, and any other fruit that you love for your customers to enjoy. All you need to do is toss the fruit together and serve! Summer fruit salads taste great alone, or you can serve them with some greek yogurt or frozen yogurt. 

Citrus Summer Salad 

Citrus salads are another great option for the summertime. Some citrus fruits you can add to your salad include lemons, limes, grapefruits, and oranges. You can top your salad with some fresh mint leaves too. 

Time to Make Some Summer Salads 

Summer salads are a great option when you’re craving something sweet but don’t want to indulge in a heavy dessert. You can also sprinkle some fruit on top of your favorite vegetable salads if you’re looking for a crunch.

We have all of the highest quality frozen fruits available that will be the perfect addition to any salsa.

A peach salsa is perfectly appropriate for summertime peach season.

Fruit smoothies are easy, delicious, and healthy. Wawona provides the highest quality fresh frozen fruit products, including pears, strawberries, plums, mixed fruit, and more. Here’s why we believe so strongly in smoothies.

Traditional smoothies help boost fruit and vegetable intake and increase fiber consumption. Common smoothie ingredients such as vegetables, fruits, whole grains, nuts, and seeds are rich in fiber. Considering most people in the US aren’t getting sufficient quantities of fiber, this is a welcomed benefit.

Further, smoothies are super quick to make. Purchase frozen fruit ingredients and keep them in your freezer for months, allowing you to toss them into the blender and whip up a smoothie in just a few minutes for any customer.

You can make a variety of smoothies with a few ingredients. Swap out your main fruit in one smoothie and you’ve got an entirely different flavor that will appeal to other customers. Smoothies don’t require loads of planning.

With spring on its way, the weather is warming up. Although you can whip up a smoothie any time of the year, it’s particularly satisfying for customers on a warm day. Perfect for spring and summer, consider adding frozen smoothies to your menu.

Wawona Frozen Foods specializes in the growing and freezing of fresh fruit. We provide frozen fresh fruit to retailers, foodservice operators, industrial customers, and schools. Let us meet your frozen fruit needs today!
