Pin ItArticle EditDiscussThis is a visually stunning way to present a fruit salad. It’s also one of those dessert styles where it can please the kids or be suitable for a cocktail party, as it's very versatile. This is best made close to serving time.

Edit IngredientsWatermelonCantaloupe (rockmelon) or other sweet-ish melonKiwifruitPineappleMarshmallow (optional)Garnish items such as mint leaf, crushed nuts, sesame seeds or cinnamon

Edit Steps1Choose the fruit combination. Use fruit that will survive being cut into cubes and won’t brown.

If using marshmallow, this will add a soft textured sweetness to the finished cube. It won’t be as healthy, of course!2Cut the fruit into cubes. The cubes work well at around 2.5cm/1 inch each. This step is a bit fiddly but cutting well shaped cubes is what makes the whole cube work well.

Use a sharp knife for clean cutting.3Assemble the cube. Do this on the actual serving dish.

Make one row consisting of three alternating cubes. Alternate so that no adjacent cubes are the same fruit.The base should consist of four sides of three cubes each side.Make two more layers the same. The cube is complete.4Serve. Place a mint leaf on top for a garnish. Sprinkle with crushed nuts, sesame seeds or a spice like cinnamon, as preferred.

You can serve this as a single cube for everyone to share from, or you can make it as a single serve cube for each diner. This will depend on how large you make the final fruit cube and how much fruit you’ve got to make the small cubes from.

Edit TipsCutting marshmallow can be a sticky experience. Between cuts, dip the knife in warm water and wipe off the goo. This will make cutting easier.If you want to use apple, soak the apple cubes in ginger ale first. This will prevent the apple cubes from going brown.
