Frozen Fruit Salad Cupcakes

Growing up, Kim's mother, Dorothy, always made these frozen fruit cups. These are super easy and delicious! They are the perfect combination of ingredients to provide an instant tropical delight for your taste buds. This would be a great snack for kids or a semi-healthy dessert to curb the need for sweets. We find them fun to break out mid-afternoon for a quick cool snack on the dock at the lake or to serve poolside at Dorothy's pool. Anytime we make these, we double the batch and they still disappear quickly . . . which validates them as a big hit with our family and friends!
