Instructions
1. Wash the fruit, slice the lemon and star fruit into thin pieces.
2. Start with the center black ring and work out from there. That will help you best gauge the space available.
3. Set the bowl where you want to start and circle the blackberries around it.
4. Follow with the blue and red rings.
5. The yellow and green rings should sort of cross over with the top blue, black and red rings as much as possible. For this you’ll need to play with the spacing and different fruits so you can create the look while still trying to keep everything looking full and staying in place.
6. Try resting fruits on top of each other, building around larger pieces and get creative!
