Fruit Fan

To arrange fruits like the one on the picture I use a special plate with pins. The pins provide a secure construction. The plate makes a fruit arrangement  trasportable. I use the pined plate for making 'Take Out' fruit displays.

You will need:

1 orange

2 red apples

1 green apple

1 apple for a base

some dark grapes

Toothpicks and bamboo sticks

Step 1. 

Prepare the following centerpices: 

orange lollypop - 5 pcs

apple flower - 4 pcs

apple leaf - 5 pcs

Orange lollypop, apple flower and leaf carved out of green apple

Step 2.

Set an apple on the pins. The apple will serve a base to fix the pieces on it.

The apple serves as a base

Step 3.

Fix the orange lollypops. Pin them into the apple.

Orange lollypops make the upper level of the fan

Step 4.

Fix the bamboo sticks with the apple flowers arranging them in a shape of fan.

The apple flowers make the medium level of the fruit fan

Step 5.

Add the apple leaves to the lower level.

The green apple leaves add some color to the fruit display

Step 6.

Fill the plate with fruits. 

Party fruit buffet is served!
