Fruit Platter

My sister requested that we bring a fruit platter as part of the dessert for Christmas dinner. I thought I would be the only one to bring one, however, we ended up with two of them. It worked out well because the fruits on each platter were completely different, with exception of the blueberries. They were also presented in different ways.

Above is the beautiful and delicious fruit platter made by my sister-in-law's mother. It included apricots, blueberries, cherries, strawberries, blackberries, pineapple spiked with anise and some wafer sticks.


This is the fruit platter I brought to my sister's house. It included mandarin orange slices, apple rings, blueberries, pomegranate seeds, and canteloupe slices.
