Looking for fruit tray ideas? Check this out. I’m using a gigantic doll needle to sew together blueberries for the main cables of this watermelon Golden Gate Bridge. All you need are four ingredients: watermelon, blueberries, pineapple, and kiwi.
I love building fruit trays for parties. Whether it’s a watermelon fruit train or a watermelon camera with a flip out screen, I love wowing my friends with a creative fruit tray.

Revamp your fruit tray this summer and build these 4-ingredient watermelon cameras equipped with flip out screens. To capture precise audio, there’s even a shotgun microphone made of blueberries and blackberries. And, for ultimate protection, I’m using removable honeydew lens covers! This isn’t your typical fruit tray.
You might be wondering of all the things to build, why an edible camera?
Let me explain.
I want you to meet Yuka Ohishi, a fellow creator and video camera fanatic. When we first met, we instantly bonded over our mutual love for camera flip out screens. After nerding out on our fave video accessories and YouTubers, it was clear that we needed to join creative forces to film and eat a video project together. Since summer is almost here, building a fruit tray of edible watermelon cameras was a perfect fit.
During our video shoot, and between all of my giggling, Yuka told me about her cool new initiative that she’s “trying to push out into the Universe.” It’s called the #weekendcreator. Yuka says that since she has a full-time job at Pinterest, she ends up creating and exploring on the weekends. And, although she’s not a designer or artist, she wants to inspire others to live a more creative life too.

As you may have noticed, I like to build things. And, I love fruit. So it’s only natural that I’m showing you how to make Eiffel Tower using fresh blueberries.
At first, learning how to build Eiffel Tower out of food seemed like a disaster. It’s tall and slender, so it was a bit of a structural nightmare… errr … I mean, a challenge.
WATCH THE RECIPE VIDEO BELOW to see how the challenge turned out.
But, I love fresh blueberries so much that I couldn’t resist. In fact, I even used blueberries to build the wheels of this watermelon fruit train. Choo-choo!
Initially, my friend jokingly asked me to construct Eiffel Tower out of chocolate covered-pretzels. I tried this. After it failed a few gravity tests, I ended up devouring a delicious pile of broken chocolate-covered pretzels. I guess not all was lost!
Then, I had a light bulb moment.
I remembered seeing Wilton Floral Wire, which included three gauges- 20, 22 and 26. The wire was perfect because it’s flexible yet strong. Here’s what I used (*Amazon affiliate link):
After a few revisions, I found the best method of how to make Eiffel Tower stand up and still look delicious.
I engineered the heck out of the main frame. For each leg, I twisted nine Wilton Floral Wires (gauge 26) together to give the tower height and strength. To help secure all the twisted wires together, I reinforced each leg with Wilton Floral Tape. Then, I slid the fresh blueberries on, and stabbed one end of the wire into a red potato. This sucker is pretty strong and could probably withstand a good fan test
Before assembling the structure, I highly recommend making each section first (foundation, frame, arches, platforms). Here’s what each section looks like:
Ok, that’s enough reading for now, because as I always love to say, it’s ….

Tip 1: Throw Away Your Boring Fruit Salad Recipe

Since there’s no dressing on this fun fruit salad, that means the fruit needs to be fresh. Look below and you’ll see what I mean. Check out those plump blueberries and sweet honeydew slices. Yum! They’re so fresh that I wouldn’t dare drown them in artifical sweetners or oils.

Chocolate covered pretzels are easy to make and fun to shape into miniature bird’s nests to celebrate Easter! An added bonus is that you only need two ingredients to make chocolate covered pretzels: chocolate and pretzels. To decorate the nest, I’m using Reese’s Pieces eggs, cotton candy, and Peeps.
This recipe was so much that I made it on live TV with Tina Macuha of Good Day Sacramento, a morning TV show on The CW Network. Check out the video below. In under three minutes, we built the chocolate covered bird’s nests and cotton candy ice cream cones. Fun Easter treats, the fast way!
