Fruit Baskets

Get creative and assemble your watermelon fruit baskets using fruit skewers or cut fruit in various shapes to form a theme for your summer party or special occasion. Taking the time to make an entirely edible arrangement shows someone that you took care into creating their fruit basket.

The best way to find a balance between not having enough material in your fruit baskets and going crazy on your present, is to decide exactly what things you want to put into the fruit baskets before you start. Spend the bulk of your budget, and then pick up a few filler items for the fruit baskets, just in case you need to fill in a few corners once the other items are arranged.

Granny Smith. An Australian Native, Grannys were discovered in 1868 by "Granny" Anne Smith of New South Wales as a chance seedling. Known for its distinctive green skin, which sometimes bears a red blush, covering a hard green flesh. An all-purpose apple that's best for baking with its crisp tart tangy flavor, it works equally well in salads and as a snack. It's a great addition in fruit baskets for snacking. Picked from mid-April, available throughout the year.
