¼ of a Watermelon
1 Punnet of Strawberries
1 Punnet of Blueberries
1 Punnet of Blackberries
1 Punnet of Raspberries
1 Small punnet of Cherries
Directions
This one is super easy to prep. Simply grab a platter, I was taking this to a BBQ so I popped it into a cake container that had a flat base and a lid that goes over the top but you can also use platter with a lid or simply wrap in cling wrap if you need to take it or make it ahead
Slice a few cm thick pieces of watermelon and pineapple *see note 1
Using your cookie cutters I used mine from Bake it by Giovannellis with a tree cookie cutter and a mini gingerbread but you can use any shape. Cut a few pieces out of your fruit with your cookie cutter. With the watermelon save a couple of slices that have the cut out and add some blueberries in the centre of them. It’s another cute option that looks affective. Depending on the size of your platter you can also cut the extra pieces up too.
Cut some pineapple out as well with your shapes and arrange all of your fruit on the platter, we want it to look full. You can overlap and double things up with fruit platters and pop the cut out shapes on top too so you can see them and get the Christmas affect
That’s it once it is all cut serve and enjoy
