Recipe 11: Edible Arrangement!

An edible fruit arrangement is a beautiful dessert for your parties. It also serves as a beautiful center piece for your table. Its a practical alternative for flowers, and very refreshing. These arrangements are very popular here in the United States. There are companies where you can order them online as a gift too. Ive ordered a couple sometime back and they are pretty expensive...... I decided to try and make them for our party and it was such a hit!!! It was soooo fun and the kids also helped and it kinda became a family fun time:)..... of course kids nibbled on the fruits before and after it was done!!

Items You'll Need: 

• Fresh Fruits
• Plate
• Wooden skewers
•  Knife
• Melon Scooper

Make Fruit Arrangement:
1. Scoop out the melons. Wash and clean the strawberries and grapes.You can also cut out  other fruits and shape them into flowers. You could also dip some of the fruit in chocolate and wait until it hardens.2. Arrange the fruit onto the wood skewers. (This is what the kids would love to do)3. For the base skin the pineapple and cut of the top part so that it would stand firm.
4. Stick the skewers into the pineapple,and arrange them as you please.Fill in the spaces with larger pieces like melons to hide the sticks.
Its best to make the arrangement before the party. You can assemble the skewers ahead of time and put them in the refrigerator.
