# Directions:
01 - Wash and dry all fruits thoroughly. Hull strawberries and halve them if large.

# Expert Tips:
01 -
- They are impossibly cute and people gravitate toward them immediately
- No cooking required and they come together in fifteen minutes flat
02 -
- Dry fruit completely before threading or water will make the cheese slide around unpleasantly
- Cutting cheese while it is cold from the refrigerator gives much cleaner edges
03 -
- Thread with the heaviest items at the bottom so the kabobs stay upright on the platter
- Use two hands and gentle pressure when threading to avoid squishing soft fruit
