Bring some seasonal fun to breakfast or snacks, with fruit salad that mirrors candy corn.
The photos show how to use fresh or canned fruit and white topping to mirror the three-color layers of candy corn.
We’ve created the lists of options below.
You can mix different fruits in the same color layer, e.g., cantaloupe and mango. You can also add dried fruits to the color layer: sultanas (yellow raisins), dried apricot, dried cranberries or cherries.
If you can’t find what you want in the produce aisle, check the frozen aisle for fruits that are out of season (cherries, peaches, etc.).
You can add a layer of white fruits in addition to, or instead of, the white topping.
You don’t have to wait until Halloween, October 31st. Enjoy a week or 10-day lead-up with Halloween-themed recipes.
