Flower Fruit Basket

Flower Fruit Basket
(In the picture, it had started to get eaten already, but you understand what it should look like.) You can make these at any size you'd like, with whatever fruits you would like. For mine I used Pineapple, strawberries, grapes, blueberries, cantaloupe and watermelon. You will need a basket or deep glass dish of some sort, green flower foam and wooden skewers. Cut the pineapple into slices and with a flower shaped cookie cutter make cut outs. Ball watermelon and cantaloupe, and cut the leaves off the strawberries. Next put a skewers into the middle of all the pineapple, and add half a cantaloupe ball to the middle of each of the flowers. Put grapes and blueberries back and forth on a skewer. Ball three watermelon onto each skewers, and put one strawberry on a skewer. Make sure you can not see the top of the skewers. You do not have to follow my directions, you can experiment with your own thoughts and ideas. Place the green flower foam into the bottom of the basket/dish, but wrap it in plastic wrap first so it does not get all over the fruit. Next place the skewers in the foam, starting with the middle/top. Then work out to make the fruit look like a large flower basket. See more baby shower recipes
