Method

Mix the raw sugar, chile, and lime zest in a mixing bowl. Stir in the fleur de sel and granulated sugar. This mixture will keep in an airtight container for up to 2 days, but will lose its aroma over time.
Serve the mixture in individual dipping dishes accompanied by the fruit. Instruct your guests to dip the fruit in the mixture and enjoy.
