Question:
What is an idea for a creative food art display?
Our Relay for Life team has to "build/make" a healthy snack and display and creativitiy is essential. Does anyone have an idea of what we can build using food? Almost like food art?

For Christmas I built a fruit centerpiece.
First I hot glued a large foam craft cone to a cheap decorative platter.
Next lay parsley leaves around the bottom of the cone.
Use toothpicks and wooden skewer to fasten various fruit to the cone, starting with the biggest fruit on bottom and working your way up. Mix it up and play with color.
Use small grape clusters, nuts, and cranberries to fill in the spaces. Add more parsley throughout for color. Let some fruit "spill" on the platter and try adding seasonal decoration. For fall try red leaves. Tulips for spring etc.
The cone can be as big as you like. Mine was about a foot and a half high, but it would be easy to make it up to three feet high. Have fun!
