Dragonfruit is one of my favorite fruits to use, given its vibrant pink exterior and that spotty dalmatian interior for contrast. This particular dragonfruit looked like a parrot as soon as I opened it. I just had to add a few details.

Two halved dragon fruits decorated to look like cartoon owls with mango slices for crests and feet, candy eyes, and small fruit pieces for beaks—these fun bites make creative and healthy dishes for food recipes. Arranged on a gray surface.
