Usually, most of the time during the preparation of the holiday is spent on preparing the main dishes, while fruit slicing is done last, so that the fruits do not darken and you have time to meet the guests with dignity. But everything can be done much easier. Get special forms for slicing fruit. They will save time and help you shape your dish with professional accuracy.
For example, you can create a true rainbow of flavor on a platter using regular slicing. Just lay out fruits and berries in layers: red will be juicy strawberries, orange – exotic mango, yellow – ripe pear, green – avocado or sour apple, and whipped cream sprinkled with colored coconut can be responsible for blue shades.
Sweet and sour oranges are a versatile fruit that is suitable not only for dessert, but also for snacking alcoholic beverages. Slice the orange into thin slices. Draw a vertical strip in the middle with a sharp knife. Turn the orange slice through the hole so that the ring of the peel is inside, and real sun rays are outside. All that remains is to serve the fruit in a beautiful bowl.
Delight your child with a fruit peacock. Cut the yellow pear vertically – you need exactly half. Place the flat side on a plate. Take a good look: the narrow part of the fruit resembles a bird’s head, and the wide one resembles its body. Insert a sharp piece of carrot instead of the beak, and lay out the bulky feathers with sliced kiwi slices. Black and green – just like a peacock.
