Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 loaf Pound cake (or angel food cake)
- 2 cups Strawberries
- 2 cups Pineapple chunks (fresh or canned, drained)
- 1.5 cups Seedless grapes
- 2 cups Melon balls (e.g., cantaloupe or honeydew)
- 12 pieces Wooden skewers
- 0.5 cup Chocolate sauce or yogurt (optional, for dipping)
Instructions
1. Wash and thoroughly dry all the fruit. Hull and slice the strawberries if they are large, and set them aside.
2. If using fresh pineapple, cut it into bite-sized chunks. Drain if using canned pineapple.
3. Use a melon baller to scoop balls from your choice of melon, or cut into small cubes if preferred.
4. Cut the pound cake (or angel food cake) into 1-inch cubes.
5. Begin assembling the kabobs by threading the ingredients onto the wooden skewers. Alternate between fruit and cake for variety and visual appeal. For example, start with a strawberry, followed by a piece of cake, then pineapple, melon, and grape.
6. Repeat the pattern until the skewer is filled, leaving about an inch at each end for easy handling.
7. Arrange the completed kabobs on a serving platter.
8. If desired, serve with a side of chocolate sauce or yogurt for dipping.
9. Enjoy the kabobs fresh, or store them in the fridge for up to 2 hours before serving.
