You may be looking for a quick and easy snack or an ingredient for a great dessert recipe, but either way fruit cocktail is a must-have for your pantry. And there's no better place to shop for canned mixed fruit than Pavilions.

Who can resist the sweet taste of peaches, pears, grapes and cherries mixed together to make a fragrant fruit cocktail salad? You can even customize this dessert classic by adding new ingredients, such as fresh mint leaves, sunflower seeds or banana slices. Top with a dollop of fresh whipped cream and you've got a family favorite.

A canned fruit cocktail is also a must-have ingredient for fresh-baked fruit cocktail cake — which tastes even more scrumptious when served warm with a cold glass of milk or scoop of vanilla ice cream. Canned mixed fruit can also be used to make decadent yogurt parfaits, acai bowls, custards and compotes.

All of the cooking and baking staples you need are conveniently available at Pavilions. Stop by your neighborhood store today, or visit us online.
