Ingredients
- 1 styrofoam cone (small or medium size) from your local craft store. It can be something like this.
- Toothpicks
- Cookie cutters with various shapes (similar to these)
- Assorted fruits such as green and black grapes, strawberries, kiwis, raspberries, mountain-dew and a honeydew melon.
- Cilantro for garnish.
Instructions:
- If you only have a white one then you can drape some green paper on a white cone or attach fruits very densely so it resembles more like a tree trunk.
- Using the cookie cutters create various shapes out of the melon slices.
- Attach toothpicks to the styrofoam cone. Attach one piece each of a fruit to a toothpick. (Think free-form; as the tree starts building you will know more about which fruit combinations are looking better and how densely packed you want your tree to be).
- Continue building the tree as dense as you want!
- Use cilantro leaves as grass garnish.
- Enjoy your new edible fruit tree!!
