Ingredients

  • 1 pint strawberries
  • 1 bunch green grapes
  • 6 oz blackberries
  • 2 cups cantaloupe melon balls
  • 3 kiwi
  • cilantro of parsley for the base garnish,and throughout if you like

Additional supplies you will need:

  • 1 Styrofoam cone they make various sizes, so choose depending on your desired size - I used a smaller one, about 8" tall
  • Toothpicks have plenty on hand

Instructions

  • Starting at the bottom (or top, if you prefer), place toothpicks into the tree, and place fruit on them. Alternate the fruit so you have a good variety and not one kind all bunched together. Place them as close as you can to avoid seeing through to the cone. Or alternately, you can place cilantro or parsley in-between to fill any gaps.
  • Work your way around the tree until the cone is covered and your beautiful fruit tree masterpiece is complete. Place your garnish on the bottom of your desired serving dish or plate, and top with the fruit tree. Place as a centerpiece or snack table decoration, and watch it be devoured!
