Description:

This is a swap for all fruit lovers out there, whether it is the flavor, the colours or the original shapes that you like. Each participant will have only ONE partner and will send THREE items:

  1. Fruit-flavoured candy
  2. "Fruity" object (e.g. illustrated with fruit)
  3. Recipe with fruit

You may, for example, send your partner that loves strawberries, a few strawberry-flavoured bubblegums, a couple pencils with the fruit on 'em and a recipe for a quick strawberry milk-shake. The object, therefore, does not need to be handmade, but if you are a crafty girl, please, do send something of your own make. The recipe does not need to be sophisticated. Think simple and quick, it is the best solution most of the times! Also, it does not need to be on a fancy/cute card, unless you're aiming for a heart. ;)

Make sure you have your fave fruit listed below or on your profile page. If you do not have anything, your partner will fell free to choose whatever fruit she/he likes.

This is an INTERNATIONAL swap, so, make sure you'll be able to pay the necessary fees if your partner is overseas, BEFORE you enter this.

Allowed only people with ratings of 4 and up. Newbies are welcome with a complete profile IF they contact me before joining with some kind of reference (fotolog page, flickr page, blog, whatever). I've had a few bad experiences with swaps, so I'm not going to risk ruining everybody's fun.

I like all kinds of berries (especially raspberries, currants, gooseberries, lingonberries).

Do we have to match our partner's fruit exactly? Depending on the fruit chosen, it might be difficult to find something for number 1 and 2.

Lunaria 08/ 5/2007 #

My favorites are mango and passion fruit, but I also like raspberry, cantaloupe, and honeydew.

wickedwicked 08/ 5/2007 #

my favourites are apples, strawberries and cherries. also love bananas and raspberries. lemon and passion fruit are definitely no-no's.

SWAN: no, it is not obligatory to match exactly your partner's taste. if they do not tell what are their faves or if you are having problem finding something for 1 and 2, you may choose something else, yes.

I'd actually prefer not to get the candy, just because finding decent vegan candy is hard. So my partner, you can just send items #2 and #3; and I'll rate you a 5 or 5+♥ for that.

My favorite fruit is watermelon.

SummersLove 08/ 7/2007 #

I'm going to say I love every fruit EXCEPT the following: mango, passion fruit, ume, muscat, papaya, starfruit. JUST those, LOVE everything else :) Thanks.

Snaxy 08/ 8/2007 #

I am very fruity! (haha)

For my partner:

In my candy (NO GELATIN from an animal source please!)

I really, really want some Strawberry items/objects (but I adore cherry and apple objects too!)

Candy flavs I love are: Strawberry, mango, peach, cherry (sweet or sour), blue raspberry, lemon, watermelon, lime, melon, passionfruit, and vanilla ("it's a bean that's also a fruit"). I love sweet and also Sour is fine too!

Fruit Tastes I dislike are" (banana-strawberry combo, either is fine, but not in a combo, yuck!), kiwi (esp. with strawberry), pineapple, coconut (unless paired with chocolate), tomato (hey! some people consider it a fruit!), and overly purple grape.

and...

No oranges, kiwi, raspberries, or bananas in my recipe please (also, I'm a Veg, but if the recipe is great, don't worry cause I can alter it easily I'm sure =)

BTW Suzanne, you should try "vegan essentials" (online store) candy (some is great!)

Have fun! and Much Thanks, ahead to my partner! Unless, of course they're a flaker. In that case I'll track them down and bludgen them with a banana!...just a warning =^_^=

wickedwicked 08/ 9/2007 #

PLEASE, EVERYONE: post more than one fruit that you like to make your partner's work easier. that way, you'll have almost no chances of being disappointed.

THANX!

I love anything with/tasting of cherries, watermelon, grape, lime, coconut, banana, passionfruit and raspberries. i would love any fruit recipe to do with cocktails especially. Flavoured gum is great as we don't get much of it in Scotland!

heide 08/21/2007 #

I love cherries, blueberries, watermelon, pineapple, coconut and grapefruit... Those are my favorites, but really, I don't think there is any fruit that I would not eat!

I'm veg too, so please no gelatin candies.

I love most everything in the fruit family---except, I don't like banana flavored candy. I probably like cherry best of all. I will love anything you send, promise!

GingerThimble 09/ 1/2007 #

I love strawberry, cherry, rasperry and grape.

cathych 09/ 1/2007 #

My favorite fruit is any kind of melon!

gloamingdesigns 09/ 4/2007 #

I love lemons – anything lemon. My all-time favorite fruit is nectarine but as I don’t like very sweet candy (or anything), that might be hard. I also love cherries, figs, and any type of berries (blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, strawberries…). Just a note: if you prefer to send a non-candy item like a teabag or such – that’s fine with me too. But I’m sure I’ll enjoy whatever you send!

opps - forgot to mention - i really don't like bananas.
