I saw a fruit centerpiece on the internet that was made of chunks of fruit and spiralled upward. Does anyone know what is used for the base and to attach the fruit to?
I have been looking for that website for a while. Can you let me know what the web address is?
Thanks! reidweaver @yahoo.com

I make these all the time. I use what is called "Oasis" which is a floral type of styrofoam. It is not hard like regular styrofoam. You will need to strap the oasis/styrofoam down with wire or ribbon or even floral putty if it does not fit snug in whatever container you are making your fruit/veggie arrangement. I reuse my "Oasis" over and over all of the time. Hope this helps.

Styofoam is a great idea. I could cover it with clear plastic then stick the fruit on. Thanks ladies

it's more than likely with pineapples you put fruit on tooth picks then stick into pineapple

I have recently purchased a kit called centerpiece gourmet. They use skewers to hold the fruit together and the shells or Styrofoam to hold it up in the basket. I hope this helps!!
