I make a lot of edible fruit bouquets which produces a lot of fruit waste. To minimize this, I began saving the "scraps" and tossing them in the freezer. To my surprise, the frozen fruit makes great smoothies and I even use them to flavor my water.

Not only am I saving bundles by creating the masterpieces myself, I get the best smoothies for pennies!

You ought to post a description and photo for your edible fruit display on the crafting for fun and money entry, I know I'd love to see it.I have only saw them advertised on TV and like the member tsiegl says, we would love to see and know how. Here is that contest page for the crafting for fun & money entry and it can win you$15 if its chosen. As a matter of fact a member a few weeks ago posted wanting to know how to create those for a wedding I believe it was.

I've never made edible fruit bouquets but have often thought it would be fun. Would you mind sharing some instructions and/or tips on doing this?

Tip: Make Smoothies With Extra Ripe Fruit

Archived on 05/22/2009

Any time I have berries that are not pretty enough to serve or put on cereal or bananas that are over ripe, I make my own recipes for smoothies. My family loves them and they are soooo good for us on these hot dog days of Summer.

This morning, I put a over ripe banana in the blender with about six ounces of milk, you can also use soy milk, a couple ice cubes, a good size spoon of peanut butter, smooth or crunchie, added a few frozen blueberries which are in season right now in Texas, and so much less expensive than other times of the year.

I turned the blender on and, in less then a minute, had a great breakfast. Experiment and use whatever fruit you have on hand. I really love the peanut butter in there and it gives you some protein which will help you stay content until lunch!
