Kiwi fruit - frozen?

[Murphassoc]

Can you freeze kiwi? I enthusiastically bought a bag containing a dozen kiwi or more, so now am
concerned belatedly about spoilage. Has anyone any info on whether they freeze successfully? Thanks
in advance, JM

Don't think so... they'd turn to mush (IMHO)

Me and my sister froze them, but not to preserve them. ;-)

Frozen kiwi is delish'. Cut the top off and spoon out the frozen kiwi and eat like ice cream. ;-d

Peel and puree them. Freeze in a container. Instant sherbet. You can add sugar or cream or any of
the other ingredients that find their way into frozen confections. Or you could make old-fashioned,
too many eggs, too much cream ice cream.
