Follow The Directions

01

Step

5 mins

Grapes Foundation (5 minutes): On a large cutting board or serving platter, create the outline of a Christmas tree using the green grapes. Start at the top point and fan the grapes out in a triangular pattern, forming the first section of the tree.

02

Step

10 mins

Kiwi Layers (10 minutes): Create three triangular sections with grapes, each slightly larger than the last, moving downwards. Fill in each section with overlapping kiwi slices, creating a lush green base for the tree.

03

Step

5 mins

Strawberry Garland (5 minutes): Arrange sliced strawberries across the tree shape in a winding pattern, mimicking a festive garland. Secure the strawberries with toothpicks.

04

Step

3 mins

Pomegranate Ornaments (3 minutes): Scatter pomegranate seeds randomly over the arranged fruit, creating the illusion of sparkling ornaments.

05

Step

10 mins

Pineapple Star and Ornaments (10 minutes): Using small cookie cutters, cut the pineapple slices into a star shape and several smaller ornament shapes. Place the pineapple star at the top of the tree. Decorate the rest of the tree with pineapple ornaments.

06

Step

2 mins

Date Trunk (2 minutes): Arrange the dates at the bottom of the tree to form a sturdy trunk.

07

Step

0 mins

Serve (0 minutes): Serve immediately for the best freshness and presentation. Alternatively, cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 2 hours. For parties longer than 2 hours, prepare it without the strawberries, and add those right before serving.

For best results, choose firm, ripe fruits that are not overly juicy to prevent the platter from becoming soggy.
If preparing in advance, consider brushing the cut fruits (especially apples and bananas, if using) with a mixture of lemon juice and water to prevent browning.
Get creative with your fruit selection! Consider adding blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, mandarin oranges, or star fruit for extra color and flavor.
To add a touch of sweetness, lightly dust the finished platter with powdered sugar before serving.
Consider adding a small bowl of yogurt-based dipping sauce (such as honey-lime or vanilla) alongside the platter.
