    How do frozen grapes taste?

    I bought a huge bunch (no other option at the store I was at). Wondering if the texture will be same as fresh or worse (doubt it'll be better).

      They taste great frozen. Somehow they seem a little sweeter to me, though I could be imagining that. The texture is fine.

      If you let them defrost, though, does the flesh have a funny texture? Most things are a little ruined by freezing :(

      Otherwise I'll have them like popsicles :)

      "Fine", though? Or a little, I don't know - thready, pulpy, mushy... (that is what I might expect :/)

      Not like I'm going to power through all of these this week anyway though, lol

      I have never let them defrost, so I don't know about that. When I freeze them, it is because I want to eat them frozen! They are like healthy popsicles :-)

      You could always try defrosting just a few to see how it changes the texture. If you don't like them defrosted, just eat the rest frozen. I know they are good frozen.

      Good idea. 2/2 for awesome when frozen, I'll take those odds :)

      Also frozen pitted cherries are excellent as well as blueberries! And you can sprinkle a little cinnamon and stevia on the blueberries and they are awesome:)

      Fruit & Veggies with a high water content don't freeze and thaw without texture change.

      They're not necessarily ruined, you just need to use them differently. Celery is a veggie example, the thawed texture is fine for soup, but not for stir fry. A little too soggy (IMO).

      Lots of frozen fruits are great for baking and smoothies. Things where texture change won't be so obvious.

      They taste great frozen! I rarely eat fresh grapes anymore because as soon as I buy them, I wash them and freeze them. Best way to eat them!

      Like candy. Really refreshing in the summer- like a food and a beverage at the same time. But you don't want to thaw them again, as they then turn to goo.

      Frozen fruit in general is pretty general. I threw some figs from our tree into the freezer last year and enjoyed the frozen figgies weeks after the plant stopped producing.

      I love frozen grapes, I love Popsicles so this is a great alternative.

      I personally do not like frozen grapes. It just takes away from the crunchy texture that I love from fresh grapes. I always get the firmest so when I bite into them they burst. The frozen are just too slushy but, I appear to be a minority. I am very very picky about my grapes.

      I love them. My mom would give them to me in the summer in the south when it was 100+ degrees and crazy heat index. This makes me feel like a kid again. I am going to have go and get some to freeze.
