Sweet-toothed brethren, you have found your happy place. Serve these mouth-watering recipes from bloggers who share your passion for all things sweet and your BBQ guests will be looking forward to dessert the most too.

It may have come from Cravings of a Lunatic’s blog but there’s nothing crazy about this recipe. Strawberry, caramel, and chocolate? That’s a flavour combo that makes complete sense.

Honey Grilled Pineapple
With just three ingredients it goes without saying that this recipe is mouth-wateringly simple. Grilled pineapple is genius in itself, but with Wine and Glue’s honey and cinnamon sauce added it’s truly heavenly. Once you get a taste for grilled pineapple, don’t stop at just one topping. Try it with cream, caramel, melted chocolate… we’ll stop now because we’re drooling, but you get the picture.
You’ll need:
- Pineapple
- Honey
- Cinnamon

The fun doesn’t stop here! The more sweet grilled treats out there in the world, the better. Peaches can be grilled. Sugared doughnuts can be grilled. Even grapefruits can be grilled. The only limits are your imagination and the number of desserts you can fit on your barbie.
