Helpful Tips
- Choose Firm, Ripe Bananas: Use bananas that are ripe but still firm to ensure they hold their shape on the skewer and don’t get mushy.
- Go For Ripe Fruit: The fruit needs to be perfectly ripe when you make these up so pay close attention to when they’ll be ripe, if you’re buying them in advance.
- Keep Ingredients Chilled: For the best texture and flavor, keep your fruit and marshmallows chilled until just before assembly and serving, especially on hot days.
