What is a Fruit Dip?
Fruit dip is a type of snack or dessert that typically consists of some type of creamy side dish that is perfectly paired with sliced fruit for dipping. The cream can range from sweetened condensed milk, to yogurt, to cream cheese, or even whipped cream.
Lots of classic fruit dips tend to be a super sweet yogurt but there are so many other types too!
Like caramel, chocolate, or dip variations based on your favorite desserts. Yum.
