With easy and quick preparation, this can be a fun project to do with kids. A fresh mint leaf is a great addition to any fruit kabobs. However, this is completely optional and can be omitted. Start by rinsing the fruits well. To get rid of any excess water, place them on a few sheets of paper towel.
You can also pat them dry, but it is not necessary. When using strawberries, cut the stems off. If they are too large, cut them in half if using 1 piece per wooden stick, then you will only need half the amount of strawberries. Take a wooden skewer and add fruit onto it, in any order you like, using one of each except for the grapes use 2 of those.
For the fruit kabob dip , combine together sour cream and chocolate hazelnut spread. Only 2 ingredients but is a must-try dip. For kids, you can serve these fresh fruit skewers with flavored yogurt or vanilla pudding. Yes, you can. Make them the night before serving and keep them in an airtight container.
Store them refrigerated in an airtight container until ready to serve. You can also serve on a bed of ice. Choose anything that keeps well in the fridge like pineapple, kiwi, blackberries, honeydew, watermelon turn any leftovers to aqua fresca , etc… Avoid bananas or apples as they will turn brown. Use anything red watermelon, strawberries , blue blueberries and white marshmallows are the best choice here. If you want to go the extra mile, cut the watermelon into stars!
If you have large strawberries, you might need to cut them in half as they may be too heavy to hold on a skewer or too big. You can use Nutella - either store-bought or made at home, or any chocolate-hazelnut spread you like.
I find this ratio just perfect, but you can add more spread if desired. Skewers a minimum of 4-inch centimeters long. You can use longer and add more fruits if you like. Bur fruits like bananas, apples, pears can brown easily when exposed to air. You can squeeze some lemon juice fresh or bottled over the skewers right after you make them to prevent browning.
It is important that you take the extra step in how to store and preserve the fruit skewers, so you can serve fresh and delicious party appetizer that is presentable and not browned or spoiled.
When making party food like these skewers, cakes, cake pops and other similar items that may require transportation to the party destination, I get a little worried. Make sure these kebabs are in a stable container or platter with a lid in order to easily transport them. I recommend that you choose firmer fruit, like pineapple, watermelon, peach or bananas.
