If you’ve been searching for ways to add a tropical touch and sweet kick to your summer cooking, look no further than the season’s tastiest trend: the pineapple bowl.
Crafted from carved-out pineapples, this unique form of tropical tableware turns ordinary meals into works of art. By simply cutting a pineapple in half, scooping out the flesh, and flattening its underside, the yummy fruit is instantly transformed into an edible bowl. Once hollowed out, the pineapple can be filled with a number of foods, ranging from sweet treats to savory dishes.
