Ingredients

Fruit Wands

Instructions

Fruit Wands

  1. Cut the watermelon into 1-inch rounds. Using a star cookie cutter, cut out pieces of watermelon and set them aside. (Cut any leftover watermelon into cubes to snack on later.)
  2. Using a pizza cutter, slice the fruit leather into 10 to 12-inch pieces, then into two strings per piece.
  3. On each skewer, add pieces of berries and grapes leaving about 2 inches from the top. Tie the fruit leather "strings" to the skewer in between the top of the berries and below the watermelon. Place the watermelon star on the top of the skewer without the top poking through.
  4. If making these for small kids, trim the pointed part of the skewer before placing the watermelon star on top.

Notes

  • Best served immediately after assembly
