# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • They hit that sweet spot between healthy and indulgent without the sugar crash of actual candy.
  • Seriously, it takes five minutes of active time and then the freezer does all the work.
  • Perfect for sneaking into lunchboxes or keeping on hand when cravings strike at 3 PM.
02 -
  • Don't skip the drying step—any residual moisture will make them freeze with an icy crust instead of that smooth, glossy surface.
  • If you're coating them with sugar and citrus, do it right before freezing so the coating stays intact and doesn't get absorbed into the skin.
03 -
  • Freeze them uncovered for the first hour, then transfer to a container—this prevents the sugar coating from getting sticky and clumping.
  • The moment you take them out of the freezer, you have maybe three minutes before they start thawing, so batch them in small containers so you can enjoy them at peak crispness.
