We love having frozen fruit available at all times in our freezer. Frozen Fruit is picked at just the perfect freshness, sealing in all the vitamins and nutrients. Having a bag of Welch’s Frozen Fruit in the fridge is so convenient for when I want to make a smoothie or if I want fruit on top of my yogurt in the morning. I also just pull out the amount that I need so I am not wasting any by purchasing more than I will eat at one time. This makes it perfect for making popsicle recipes!
