🍽 Notes from the Kitchen
Traditionally made with pineapple in the American South, Pink Fluff is a nostalgic warm-weather dish often served at gatherings and potlucks. This version swaps in lychee juice for a floral, spring-inspired twist. The result is still comfortingly sweet but feels a little more ethereal—like something you’d serve at a fairy feast beneath blooming trees.
