03 - Thread each skewer with an alternating pattern of fruits and cheese cubes. Mix colors and flavors for visual appeal.

01 -

They come together in literally 15 minutes but look like you put in way more effort
The sweet and creamy contrast is addictive—kids and adults both reach for them

02 -

Dry your fruits really, really well—any moisture on the surface will make the cheese get weird and soft faster
If you're making these more than an hour ahead, wait to thread the strawberries until the last 30 minutes or they'll start to weep and get mushy

03 -

Buy a block of cheese and cube it yourself—pre-cubed cheese has this weird waxy coating that affects the texture
Thread the ingredients right up to the top of the skewer but leave about half an inch at the bottom for something to hold onto
