Prep Time: 20 min.
This Oyster and Pearl Duo is perfect for Mermaid or Ocean-themed birthday parties. It would also work well as a centerpiece on a fruit arrangement pretty much any time of the year.
Ingredients
- cantaloupe
- dragonfruit
- large candy eyes
- small candy eyes
- melon baller
Instructions
1. Trace the curvy outline of the oyster’s mouth on the cantaloupe with a pencil.
2. Use a small knife to make the cut.
3. Scoop out any seeds with a spoon.
4. Use a melon baller to make a dragonfruit ball.
5. Top the dragonfruit ball with the small-sized candy eyes, and place it inside the melon.
6. Top the oyster cantaloupe with candy eyes.
Notes
If you can’t find dragonfruit you can use any light-colored fruit, i.e., honeydew, apple or pear.
