Tips
These tips give you the tools to create an attractive and delicious fruit tray that will impress your guests and provide a healthy and refreshing snack option!
  • Choose a variety of fruits: Select a variety of colorful and ripe fruits to include on your fruit tray. Consider using seasonal fruits for the freshest and most flavorful options.
  • Cut the fruit just before serving or cover until you're ready to serve!
  • Arrange the fruit attractively: Arrange the fruit attractively on the tray, using different colors and textures for a visually appealing display. You can arrange the fruit in piles, clusters, or in a pattern.
  • Use a sturdy tray: Use a sturdy tray or platter that can support the weight of the fruit and won't warp or bend under the weight.
  • Keep the fruit chilled: Keep the fruit chilled until serving time to help keep it fresh and prevent it from spoiling.
  • Provide small bowls for dipping! A dipping sauce, such as a yogurt or chocolate dip, can be a tasty addition to a fruit tray. 
 
Making Ahead and Storing Leftovers
Making ahead: I recommend making your fruit tray just before serving, however, this can be prepped up to 24 hours in advance. A great way to keep the fruit fresh is to covered with plastic wrap once assembled on the board. You can also pre-cut the fruit and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator and assemble when you're ready to serve.
Storing Leftovers: store any extra fruit in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
