“This refreshing fruit salad recipe with a wonderful twist comes from Hawaii. It's a conversation piece as well...great for parties and potlucks. The Almond Ice will have everyone guessing why these 'ice cubes' don't melt!! Hint: Avoid citrus fruits so the gelatin remains firm.” - by Sadie

2 1/4 cups boiling water
4 teaspoons almond extract

"This is a very mellow and slightly sweet dessert. I did add more extract than what the recipe called for...simply because I am partial to almond, and next time will probably up the sugar to 2 cups. ..." See moreI didn't add the other fruit like instructed, we just enjoyed the "ice". Very similar to jello, but the taste can be altered to your liking. Hubby really enjoyed this and is a good snack for the kids. Thanks Sadie."
