- 2 tbsp Heavy cream
- 1 pinch Salt (optional)

Using a hand mixer or whisk, beat the mixture until smooth and creamy.
Fold in the diced pineapple and any additional finely chopped fruit of choice if desired, mixing gently to distribute the fruit evenly.
For a smoother consistency, add heavy cream one tablespoon at a time and mix until the desired texture is reached.
