Grapes Kebab, stuffed Grapes...stretched out grapes..you name it..



Knew that there was an event coming up on Grapes, but had lost track of it...and somehow, just landed up in the blog Swad of Swapna..and there it was!!..Grapes..Grapes..Grapes. I had prepared this dessert to post for the same, but had not got the time to prepare the presentation, and kept in lagging behind, and to my surprise..gosh!!!..today, is the last day for submission....

So, got a quick presentation done, and its still 1: 25 pm, noon..here in Kuwait..so, still on time..better late than never !!..(As usual, my true self...always late!!)

So, this is my simple, quick grape dessert ...a slight change in the order of arrangement and presentation of dessert, makes a world of difference.

Usually, with fruits on board the dessert plate, they tend to land on top of the custard under the head " Fruit salad", alongside with any ice cream of your choice. This time, I wanted some change to it...and there was born, my fruit kebab. Its not my patent baby thou..have seen it here and there, quite a number of times..but it was the first time I really tried it out.

Using 6 inch bamboo skewers, pin all the sliced fruits together..grapes, apple, pineapple, banana, orange...whichever is available. Roll the skewer in condensed milk, then in dessicated coconut....chill for a couple of hours....and off to serve!!!! Easssiieeee...

I tried adding in a piece of Galaxy chocolate too..(but it just wouldn't stay ....breaks off). Can pin in a cube of cake piece for a change, if you want..I didn't have any at that time, hence not on my fruit kebab.



The Kebab was served with a scoop of strawberry ice-cream, and a slice of custard topped with a thin slice of (can you guess what it is.....hee..hee...its just strawberry jam!!!)..nothing official about it, and my "so-so" chocolate curls. Peeled the edge of a chocolate (I used one from my kid's Galaxy choc-box....and very heartly, finished the leftover) using a veg peeler.

This dessert goes out to the "Fresh Product of the Month" event organised by Marta of Chemcookit
