Eye Catching Fruit Cups

These Eye Catching Fruit Cups are gorgeous, delicious, refreshing and of course eye catching too!! The recipe for the fruit cups is pretty simple. We made a strawberry mixture made from strawberries and jello and topped it with different chopped fruit.

For an eye catching presentation at your next part, line them up in rows, each row topped with a different fruit topping. You can use any kind of chopped fruit. We used chopped mango, kiwi, blueberries and pomegranate.

The fruit cups can be made in any plastic cups as well. If you would like to use a covered container, these square acrylic boxes work very well.

You will need:

• • strawberry mixture

• • chopped fresh mango

• • chopped kiwis

• • blueberries

• • pomegranate 

• • glass votive holders
