  • 4
    Prepare the Glaze:
    -In a saucepan, combine sugar and cornstarch.
    -Stir in lemon juice.
    -If the glaze is lumpy; Add pineapple juice until smooth (or any juice available).
    -Bring to a boil over medium heat, cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened.
    -Cool.
    -Brush the fruits with the glaze.
    -Refrigerate for at least an hour before serving.

    *You can substitute this glaze with jello, much simpler and gives a great finish. Prepare the jello mix as indicated on the box, refrigerate until cold (not stiff), then brush the fruits lightly with the jello mixture. Refrigerate again before serving.
