Making Fruit Kebabs

Small whole fruit or neat chunks of fruit make pretty kebabs. Grapes, strawberries, physalis and cherries can be skewered intact; halve dates, figs, apricots and plums; cut peaches, nectarines, tamarillo or apples into wedges; cut pineapple, mango, papaya and guava into chunks. Try poached kumquats. Serve kebabs alone, or arrange on a lightly sweetened fruit coulis, marbled with Chocolate Sauce or cream, with toasted brioche spread with brandy butter, on Waffles or Griddle Pancakes with maple syrup.
