I made this fruit centrepiece for Christmas a couple of years ago. Use cookie cutters to cut the fruit, and then toothpicks or cut skewers to pin the fruit to a polystyrene ball covered by a lettuce leaf!

It’s always good to serve fruit at a party, but how about displaying it in a fun way for something a little bit different. I’ve made fruit ‘cakes’ before with thick layers of melons as a base, but this is a quicker alternative, using cookie cutters to create interesting shapes.
