Description

Delightful and refreshing Heart Fruit Skewers featuring a colorful mix of watermelon, cantaloupe, honeydew, strawberries, and blueberries, shaped into charming hearts perfect for summer parties or healthy snacks.


Ingredients

Scale

Fruit

  • 1 small watermelon, cut into discs
  • 1 cantaloupe, cut into discs
  • 1 honeydew, cut into discs
  • 2 cups strawberries, halved
  • 1/4 cup blueberries


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Melons: Use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut the watermelon, cantaloupe, and honeydew discs into heart shapes. This will add a festive and visually appealing touch to your fruit skewers.
  2. Assemble the Skewers: Thread the heart-shaped melon pieces, halved strawberries, and blueberries alternately onto skewers until you get an attractive mix of colors and fruits on each skewer.
  3. Create a Display Stand: To present the skewers standing up, take half of a small watermelon, cut off the bottom so it can stand flat, and stick the finished skewers upright into the watermelon base for a creative and eye-catching fruit display.

Notes

  • Use fresh, ripe fruit for the best flavor and texture.
  • Soak the wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes before assembling to prevent burning if you plan to grill them later.
  • Serve immediately after assembling to keep the fruit fresh, or refrigerate covered for up to 2 hours.
  • For variety, you can add other seasonal fruits like grapes or kiwi slices.
