Eat a perfect peach under the summer sun and you'll experience the fruit at its messy, dripping, sugar-bright best. Rinse your chin and understand that no melon, apricot or blackberry can compete.

A peach pie can elevate good peaches to excellence and great ones to the sublime. Even a peach pie made with frozen fruit is a terrific thing.

Kiwi-Cantaloupe Popsicles
When I was a kid there was nothing quite like coming inside on a hot summer day and my mom offering me an ice cold popsicle. Orange and grape were my favorites.

After trying a few, I decided that it was actually easier to just make up my own combos and this was by far my favorite. Its sweet and tart, super refreshing and I don't even feel guilty sharing with my dog, who has the last word on everything yummy in my house!

Pineapple Persimmon Sorbet
When we moved into this house I had never eaten a persimmon before in my life. But the persimmon tree in the backyard was so prolific I was harvesting about 50 of them a week!

Sure enough, a bag of persimmons I had on the windowsill got so overripe that they were oozing out of their skins. Necessity became the mother of invention and this healthy and delicious sorbet was born.

Transform a watermelon into a delicious cake! This is a healthy dessert that is luxurious, juicy and perfect for summer.

To make it sweeter - add 1 tbsp of raw honey to the coconut cream before whipping. For a mini version - slice the watermelon into thick slices and use a can to cut out small watermelon cakes. If you don't have watermelon - use cantaloupe or honeydew!
