Notes
Use firm fruit: Firmer melon slices hold their shape better when cut and skewered.
Chill before serving: Cold fruit tastes extra refreshing on hot days. You might like to put the serving tray over ice to help keep them cool.
Make ahead: These can be prepared a few hours in advance and stored in the fridge.
Dry the fruit: Pat slices dry before cutting to make them easier to handle.
Use short skewers for kids: Smaller sticks are easier for little hands to manage.
