Fruit Gifts Liven up any Party

Many people who have parties choose to provide their guests with small gifts, but quite often these gifts are things many guests don’t really enjoy or high calorie snacks they don’t appreciate. This makes for disappointed guests, but there is a solution: fruit gifts instead of other tokens. This doesn’t mean you have to go to the expense of providing a fruit basket or edible arrangement for every guest, but you can purchase fruit gifts for each table instead of choosing things for each guest. While it may seem like a boring idea, there are really many ways fruit gifts can liven up your party tables.

One thing you can do with fruit gifts to brighten up a table is to make faces on the skins of the fruit or peel them and mold them into designs much as you would do with an edible fruit arrangement. You can decorate pieces of fruit for individual guests at the table or you can choose to place several pieces of fruit on the table based on the number of guests and decorate the fruit gifts for an entire table. You can also use food coloring to match the fruit to the color scheme of the party.

If the occasion consists of a large number of tables and guests such as a wedding reception you can choose to decorate the fruit for individual guests. This might include decorating an orange so that it resembles the wedding cake or creating individual edible arrangements for each guest or couple. You might also choose to select a large edible arrangement and place it on the table in the main entryway for everyone to enjoy as they enter the reception hall. The occasion for which you are choosing the fruit gifts will determine which gifts are more appropriate and which ones will work best for your individual needs.

Large parties are not the only places that are enhanced with fruit gifts. Small dinner parties in your home are also good places for fruit gifts. You can still create or order small edible arrangements based on the theme of your party or choose one larger arrangement to place on the dinner table for the guests to enjoy while they are waiting for you to serve the meal. The introduction of fruit is far preferable to small candy pieces that are customary at many parties because fruit is not only healthy but will not spoil the guest’s appetite.
