Frozen grapes are one of the great treats - I buy fresh ones, wash and freeze them and snack on them later. They have an interesting consistency and they are very refreshing.
Costco sells a 4 lb. bag of frozen blueberries, blackberries and raspberries. They're great, as described above, for smoothies. They are also great for baking. I nuke them briefly and enjoy them on cereal if don't have fresh berries handy. I also throw them in fruity drinks - better than ice cubes. You can also thaw them with (or without) a little sugar and use as a great sundae topping.
My mother used to freeze fruit (especially apples and peaches - washed, peeled and sliced) for later use in pies.
I did read the first post but didn't know that you needed to freeze the fruit. But, now I see what the OP is talking about.
Funny you should mention grapes because I freeze them too but totally forgot about that. I was picturing freezing a fresh peach, fresh pineapple, etc.
