Pineapple is a huge trend these days, they are literally everywhere from clothing, stationery, party themes etc. and I’ve been always very obsessed with them, as you may notice from old posts in this blog. I had to bring a dessert to a picnic party with friends. Mini desserts are always my favorite choice to bring to a small to medium size gathering because of how easy they are for people to just grab and eat. I always love to add cute fabrics as I did to transform it into a delightful food gift for a friend, teacher or co-worker.

Pineapple with Molasses & Lime Zest
Since it’s summer, we’ve been thinking about new fresh and light recipes, especially desserts. After trying this dessert at Boqueria, a great local tapas restaurant, we’d found our winner. It’s a strange sounding combination, but somehow pineapple, lime zest, and molasses combine to make a healthy, and surprisingly delicious dessert. Just slice a pineapple into quarters, add the zest of a small lime, and drizzle with molasses. Since I’ve got half a ripe pineapple already, I made a delicious fresh pineapple juice. One of our favorite variations is to blend it with mint.
