• Slice just a little off the perimeters of the pineapple at an angle to create a cone form.
• Push the bamboo skewer by the centre, then skewer the pear on prime, leaving the highest of the skewer uncovered (you’ll skewer the star on prime on the finish.)
• Place pineapple onto a serving tray then insert toothpicks round pineapple and pear at a slight angle, breaking just a little off if obligatory, then add fruit. (I discovered it simpler to position many of the greater fruit first then fill in with the smaller fruit like grapes).
• Add the pineapple star to the highest of the skewer then serve.
