Cooking Guide

How do I ensure grapes freeze properly?

How long should grapes be frozen before serving?

Freeze grapes for at least 2 hours or until they become firm and frosty for the best texture.

Can I add different flavors to the sugar coating?

Yes, flavored sugars like vanilla or orange zest can be mixed with the granulated sugar for variety.
