05 - Fresh mint leaves

01 - On a large round platter or tray, arrange the cantaloupe cubes in an oval or round shape to form the pumpkins body.

02 - At the top center, arrange the green grapes in a small cluster to create the pumpkins stem.

03 - Use blackberries or blueberries to form the pumpkins eyes, nose, and a smiling mouth on the cantaloupe body.

04 - If desired, add sliced strawberries around the edge of the platter for an extra pop of color.

05 - Garnish with fresh mint leaves for a festive touch. Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

01 -

The assembly takes about twenty minutes but looks like you spent hours planning something special
Every single component can be prepped ahead then arranged in a rush before guests arrive

02 -

Cantaloupe continues releasing juice after being cut, so assemble this platter no more than two hours before serving
The berries will slide around on slick melon surfaces, so place them deliberately and press gently into the fruit flesh

03 -

Use a paper towel to gently blot excess moisture from berries and melon before arranging for longer lasting results
If serving outdoors, consider placing the platter on a bed of ice to keep everything fresh and firm
