Ingredients
Scale
Fruits
- ½ cantaloupe scooped with a melon baller
- 20 large blackberries
- 20 large green grapes, thinly sliced on top
Decorations
- 20 small candy eyeballs
Instructions
- Prepare the fruit: Using a melon baller, scoop out ½ of a cantaloupe into bite-sized balls. Thinly slice the top portion of each green grape to help the candy eyeballs adhere.
- Assemble the kabobs: Layer the cantaloupe balls, blackberries, and green grapes onto skewers in your preferred pattern, ensuring each skewer has at least two pieces of each fruit for balance and color.
- Add the candy eyeballs: Place one candy eyeball onto the sliced portion of each green grape and gently press to secure it, creating a spooky eye effect on the fruit kabob.
- Serve: Arrange the assembled Halloween Fruit Kabobs on a platter and serve immediately to maintain freshness and visual appeal.
Notes
- Use fresh, ripe fruit for the best flavor and texture.
- If candy eyeballs are unavailable, small chocolate chips or other edible decorations can be substituted.
- Serve immediately after assembly to prevent the fruit from browning or becoming soggy.
- For a more secure hold, chill the kabobs briefly before serving.
- These kabobs can also be customized with other fruits like strawberries, blueberries, or melon varieties.
