Grandma's Fruit Bars image

The aroma is almost Christmas-like because of the cinnamon and cloves. The bars are sweet and spicy and the topping of a light confectioners icing is a nice touch. I think this would also be delicious served with whipped cream. I would take this to a potluck or even a bake sale!

These fruit bars are a great way to use up leftover fruit. I had some strawberries and blueberries that were about to go bad, so I threw them in these bars and they turned out great!
