Directions
- Prepare the LeaderBrand Watermelon:
- Slice the watermelon in half, then cut each half into quarters.
- Slice each quarter into smaller wedges, keeping the rind on for easy handling.
- Arrange the watermelon slices neatly along one section of the round serving platter.
- Slice the Pineapple:
- Remove the top and bottom of the pineapple.
- Cut the pineapple into quarters lengthwise, remove the core, and slice each quarter into bite-sized wedges.
- Arrange the pineapple slices next to the watermelon for contrast.
- Rinse and Arrange the Grapes:
- Wash the green and red grapes thoroughly.
- Place the grapes on one side of the platter, next to the watermelon
- Add the Stone Fruit and Berries:
- Slice peaches and plums in half, removing the stones.
- Place the stone fruit, cherries, strawberries and blueberries together on one side of the platter.
- Create Decorative Oranges and Kiwi:
- Slice the orange and kiwi in half horizontally.
- Use a sharp knife to cut small, even triangles around the edges of the cut surface to create a decorative zigzag pattern.
- Gently pull the halves apart to reveal the design.
- Arrange the decorative orange and kiwi pieces on the platter.
- Fill in the Gaps and Garnish:
- Use extra berries or cherries to fill any gaps on the platter.
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves for a vibrant and refreshing finish.
