Ingredients
Scale
For the Skewers:
- 1/2 watermelon, cut into wedges and cubed
- 1/2 cantaloupe, cut into wedges and cubed
- 1/2 honeydew melon, cut into wedges and cubed
- Skewers (wooden or metal)
Tools:
- Heart-shaped cookie cutter (small size works best)
- Knife (for cutting fruit)
- Cutting board
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Melon
- Cut the Melons: Start by slicing the watermelon, cantaloupe, and honeydew melon in half. Remove the seeds from the watermelon and cantaloupe. Cut each melon into wedges, and then into cubes that are roughly 1 inch in size.
Step 2: Cut the Heart Shapes
- Cut the Hearts: Using the heart-shaped cookie cutter, press it into the melon cubes to create cute heart-shaped pieces. If you don’t have a cookie cutter, you can use a sharp knife to carefully cut out heart shapes by hand.
Step 3: Assemble the Skewers
- Skewer the Fruit: Take a skewer and start adding the heart-shaped melon pieces. You can alternate between different melons to create a colorful pattern. Stack 4-5 heart-shaped melon pieces per skewer, depending on the size of your skewer.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy
- Chill (Optional): If you have time, pop the skewers in the fridge for about 10-15 minutes to chill before serving. This is optional but can make the fruit extra refreshing.
- Serve: Arrange the skewers on a platter and serve immediately. They make a beautiful centerpiece or a fresh snack.
