Helpful Tips

  1. Choose Ripe Watermelon: The key to delicious watermelon skewers is selecting a ripe, sweet watermelon. Look for a watermelon that feels heavy for its size and has a uniform shape. The skin should be smooth with a creamy yellow spot, indicating it has ripened on the ground.
  2. Use Skewers of Appropriate Size: When preparing your skewers, choose the right size for your gathering. For appetizers or snacks, toothpicks are ideal, while longer skewers (4-5″) work well for larger gatherings.
  3. Mix and Match with Other Fruits: While watermelon and blueberries make a delightful pairing, feel free to get creative! Add other fruits like strawberries, pineapple, or cantaloupe for added flavor and variety.
