In a first-class dish, not only the taste component, but also aesthetics plays an important role. Even if the culinary skills are modest, it is enough to serve the dishes correctly and decorate the table with mouth-watering cuts, so that the guests will be pleasantly surprised. For example, any festive table will be perfectly decorated with fruit slices.
If you are thinking over a table for a buffet table, then you need to remember that in the design of any cuts for a buffet table, the main task is to maintain compactness, as well as convenience when eating. For such a meal, making fruit slices is a difficult task, since all those who are serving themselves do not sit at the same table, they move freely around the room while receiving the treats. Therefore, they are unlikely to pay attention to the decorative delights of the table.
Making fruit slices shouldn't be something supernatural: it should be simple, but at the same time original designed.
Before you start making fruit slices, you should pay attention to the size of the pieces, which should fit one bite and be easy to chew. For a buffet table, serve fruit in a classic form - on skewers for canapes or in the form of small kebabs. Skewers with strung fruit pieces can be inserted into a soft foam or foam base to give the whole dish a volumetric shape.
The second option for serving fruit slices involves the use of wafer cups or tartlets - you just need to put small portions of berries or fruits in them.
But if you are going to serve fruit slices for a children's party, then it is better to approach this business more creatively. Children are the strictest culinary judges, often judging a meal by visual perception.
Another easy way to serve fruit to the table is to place it in a basket made from half an empty watermelon.
Not every housewife is able to make curly cutting of fruits at home, in addition, not everyone masterfully owns carving tools. Therefore, take a closer look at a simpler design option for fruit slices for a children's party: lay out the berries and fruits in the form of cartoon characters, any contrasting combinations and patterns. Surprise the kids with a rainbow of strawberries, blueberries, tangerines and grapes! Or please them with silhouettes of computer game heroes.
In general, at the holiday of babies, your imagination can play out not like a child - create and surprise young gourmets. Or you can even connect them to the serving process.
Vegetable, fruit, meat and cheese cuts are the main decorations on any table, so when planning a lavish banquet for a special occasion, you should pay attention to the aesthetics of the dishes served and the decor elements.
Here it is better to hire a professional carving specialist to make real works of art from the fruit. It is easy for a carving master to cover melons and watermelons with an ornate pattern, turn strawberries into an outlandish flower, and transform apple slices into soaring butterflies.
To make the finished fruit slices look even more beautiful, you can sprinkle it with powdered sugar, additionally decorate with fresh mint leaves. Fresh flowers look no less beautiful on a fruit plate.
But you can also decorate fruit cuts for a banquet table on your own. At first, you can use the above idea with canapes. Or put the fruits in baskets or on multi-tiered dishes, just remember about the convenience of those who treat themselves - put a bowl with toothpicks or skewers next to the serving dishes. A chocolate fountain will not be superfluous on the banquet table - those present will appreciate such a treat at its true worth, dipping pieces of juicy fruit into melted chocolate.
