Prickly Pear Cactus Fruit Gummies
A wholesome, tasty cactus treat for the whole family! You can make all sorts of desserts from cactus fruit. My family adores these fruit gummies, so for a change I made them with prickly pear. The flavor turned out fantastic. Add as much sugar as you like, depending on how sweet your family prefers their desserts. You can also freeze the cactus fruit and enjoy dishes made from it all through the winter!

- Peel the prickly pears carefully—wear gloves and hold each fruit steady with a fork. Purée the prickly pear flesh in a blender or press it through a sieve. 2. Stir hot water into the agar-agar until any lumps dissolve. 3. Transfer the puréed cactus flesh to a saucepan, bring to a boil, then add the sugar and agar-agar, stir, and turn off the heat. 4. Pour into a mold (I use a silicone one). Agar-agar sets quite fast. Cut into cubes and toss with sugar.
