The context of the following conversation is Quinn substituted a fruit for another one. The recipe was versatile.:
Quinn says I think this new fruit will give the food a better texture than the one mentioned in the recipe.
The friend responds Just try not to cut it too thin or  it will get it too mushy.
Quinn responds I think I might just cut it into cubes and it will be better that way.
The friend responds you can add it after it bakes so it doesn't get too soft.
Quinn responds that is a great idea.
