If you haven\u2019t tried it yet, think shaved ice but even better. The beauty of it is that you can make it your own and it\u2019s almost impossible to mess up.<\/p>\n<p>Making this dessert only requires three steps: freeze your fruit of choice, grate the fruit in a bowl, and add your toppings. We love it drizzled with condensed milk or honey; sprinkle with lemon zest or sea salt for a delicious contrast and enjoy! Texture is always great, so if you want, feel free to incorporate fresh fruit, nuts (pistachio, almonds, etc.) and fresh herbs like mint or basil as toppings. Another tip: if you want a finer texture, opt for a microplane instead of a standard box grater for the shaved fruit part.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Shaved fruit ice is similar to bingsu&#8230; a popular Korean treat&#8230;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Fruits like mango, pineapple, kiwi, strawberry, watermelon, apples and oranges are fantastic. Stone fruits also work well with this trend \u2013 try grated frozen peaches, plums and nectarines with a drizzle of honey, topped with fresh basil. For a tropical treat, enjoy grated frozen mango with a touch of condensed milk and top it with fresh mango for a textural delight. You could even add some vanilla ice cream to the mix if you really want to sweeten the deal.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4>A Sweet Sensation<\/h4>\n<p>While the trend has taken social media by storm, it\u2019s not entirely new. Shaved fruit ice is similar to bingsu or bingsoo, a popular Korean treat often enjoyed in other Asian countries.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-117429\" src=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Shaved-Fruit-Ice_Bingsu_Dreamstime_1x65.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"650\" srcset=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Shaved-Fruit-Ice_Bingsu_Dreamstime_1x65.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Shaved-Fruit-Ice_Bingsu_Dreamstime_1x65-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Shaved-Fruit-Ice_Bingsu_Dreamstime_1x65-940x611.jpg 940w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Shaved-Fruit-Ice_Bingsu_Dreamstime_1x65-222x144.jpg 222w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>TikTok and Instagram content creators have made this sweet treat a viral sensation, and while it might be a passing trend in North America, it\u2019s finally summer in the Southern Hemisphere, so we\u2019re taking full advantage of it.<\/p>\n<p>When First Generation cookbook author <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/C7hZqbtv5ry\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Frankie Gaw<\/a> posted his shaved strawberry ice topped with condensed milk, crushed peanuts, black sesame seeds and fresh mint, everyone got hooked.
