The most common way to decorate fruit is carving, that is, cutting patterns. You can also subject a carving to a small apple and a huge watermelon. True, without the appropriate tools and some experience you cannot create a masterpiece. But do not despair. You can depict simple patterns with an ordinary knife, focusing on a drawing, drawing, or just giving free rein to imagination.

Take, for example, green and red apples. Cut them into an equal number of equal horizontal slices. Put whole apples out of slices, alternating strips of flowers. If you have a special nozzle for cutting cones, cut the cones in both varieties of apples in the same way, as a result, you will get red apples with green dots and vice versa. Furore among the guests after this is provided to you.

From the same apple you can make real roses. Divide the apple into 4 parts, remove the core and cut thin slices from each quarter. Dip the apples in boiling syrup and boil for 1-2 minutes until soft. Gently spread the slices on the cooker board, grease them with dissolved gelatin. Take one of them and roll into a tube. Wrap the next slice around the first. So slice after slice, petal by petal, blind a rose. From a pair of apples you should get a whole bunch.

The undoubted favorite of the fruit table is the edible basket. Take a large melon or medium sized watermelon. Cut in half, for greater beauty, you can leave a kind of handle on top. Remove the core with a spoon or special tool. That's all. Fill such a basket as you wish. The filling can be grapes, orange and tangerine slices, various kinds of berries, melon and watermelon balls, previously removed from the body of the basket.

Feel free to exercise your imagination. The beauty of fruits lies in the fact that they can be varied among themselves endlessly, and none of the combinations will turn out to be wrong.
