# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • You can assemble everything ahead of time and keep them chilled until the doorbell rings
  • The sweet and savory combination makes people keep coming back for just one more
02 -
  • Dry your fruit completely or the cheese cubes will slide right off when guests try to grab them
  • Room temperature cheese cuts cleaner than cold cheese, so let it sit out for 15 minutes before cubing
03 -
  • Make these up to 4 hours ahead and store them loosely covered in the refrigerator
  • Cut everything at similar heights so each kabob has a tidy, uniform appearance
