How do I choose ripe fruits for the display?

—Look for signs of ripeness such as softness, vibrant colors, and sweet aroma. For example, a ripe watermelon should be heavy, have a deep sound when tapped, and show signs of a yellow or cream-colored spot on the bottom.

Can I prepare the fruit display in advance?

—Yes, you can prepare the fruit display in advance. To keep the fruits fresh, store them in airtight containers in the refrigerator. However, it is best to assemble the display closer to the event to ensure optimal freshness and appearance.

Can I add other fruits to the display?

—Absolutely! You can customize the fruit display based on your personal preferences and the availability of fruits. Feel free to experiment with different fruits to create a unique and personalized display for your event.

How long can the fruit display be left out?

—The fruit display should not be left out for more than 2 hours at room temperature. To avoid bacterial growth and maintain freshness, it is recommended to keep the display chilled and cover it with plastic wrap or a food cover when not in use.

How should I clean and prepare the fruits before assembling the display?

—Thoroughly wash the fruits under running water to remove any dirt and debris. For fruits with rinds or skins, use a vegetable brush to scrub them gently. After washing, pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel before slicing or arranging on the display.
