In a medium saucepan, heat cream. Warm until foam forms around the edges. Remove from heat.
Put the egg yolk into bowl, add 2 Tbs of the sugar, and beat until the mixture becomes frothy.
Gradually pour the warm milk into the egg yolks, whisking constantly.
Return mixture to saucepan; cook over medium heat, stirring with a wooden spoon until the mixture gels slightly and coats the back of the spoon. If small egg lumps begin to show, remove from heat immediately.
Place mixture into refrigerator to thoroughly chill.
In a blender or food processor, combine the frozen fruit and the remaining 4 Tbs of sugar. Process until the fruit is roughly chopped.
With the processor running, slowly pour in the chilled cream-egg mixture until fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
Serve immediately or freeze up to one week. (Takes about 5 hours to freeze)
