Papillion Method For Making Fruit Sculptures. Dragon and Snake Out of Oranges
>> 2/15/2013
I am writing this post to share some news in the world fruit carving industry.
Mr.Paolo Pachetti introduces his fruit sculpting style named Papillion Method.
Paolo has DVDs for sale at his website. Now he is looking for students for his course on cocktail fruit decoration.
I purchased his DVDs in December 2012. I have 3 video tutorials on making a fruit dragon, a lion and cocktail garnishes. Paolo uses pomelo fruit for the big sculptures and small citrus fruits for cocktails.
As far as pomelo is a rare fruit in my place I used grapefruits and oranges for the sculpting.
The dragon on the picture below was made for the male's 60th birhtday party (the birthday guy was the Dragon according to the Chinese astrology) in 2012.
Material: grapefruits.

I found this method interesting and alternative to watermelon carving in winter (say 'no-watermelon-season'). The method allows to create various fruit models.
I did the Snake, a host of the year 2013, out of oranges for New Year exhibition.

Selena, this is fascinating. You did a wonderful job on the snake, and I'm excited to see you continue to educate yourself in the fine art of carving creations out of fruit.
@Kathleen, thanks for the encouraging comment. The educating is endless :)
