    Frosted Grapes are Easy Edible Décor without Dairy or Gluten

    2
    By Alisa Fleming on November 8, 2013 Appetizers, Dairy Free Desserts, Dairy-Free Recipes

    Clusters of colorful grapes are commonly seen on many holiday platters, but why not set a sparkling table with frosted grapes? This easy recipe is a must-have garnish for the main meal, to top desserts, or as an attractive finish to an appetizer spread. You can use one type of grape, go two-toned with green and crimson grapes, or seek out wine grapes for fancier occasions.

    Special Diet Notes: Frosted Grapes

    By ingredients, this recipe is dairy-free / non-dairy, gluten-free, grain-free, nut-free, peanut-free, soy-free, and vegetarian. It does use egg whites. If you confuse eggs with dairy, you are not alone. For clarification, see this post: Are Eggs Dairy?

    For egg-free and vegan frosted grapes, I recommend trying aquafaba as a substitute. You’ll need about 1/4 cup.
