Temperatures are warmer and a Strawberry Blood Orange Frozen Pie is the perfect dessert to end a meal or to enjoy as a mid-afternoon treat for Mother’s Day or for any special occasion. Strawberries are still in season and I was lucky to have fresh blood oranges from my last run to the farmers market and thought would be really nice to combine both fruits which resulted in a very nice combination for a pie filling.
Using fresh fruit it is always a good decision. Every time I have the chance to use what I have available in my market it is not only less expensive but also a good idea to bring something special to my table.

Notes
At home, my mom was used to prepare for ur many desserts that called for seasonal fruits. There was one that is still my favorite, the mango cream dessert, made with fresh manila mangoes and condensed milk.
Very simple combination that allows using most fruits resulting in a flavorful fruity cream that you can use for parfaits, pies and ice cream.
