# Directions:
01 - Wash all fruits thoroughly. Peel and cut cantaloupe and honeydew into half-moon slices for scales. Slice kiwifruits and strawberries. Cut watermelon into large and small ovals for the dragon's body and head.
02 - On a large serving tray, position watermelon ovals to form the dragon's body and head, gently curving them to create a serpentine shape.
03 - Layer melon slices, grapes, and kiwifruit slices along the dragon’s body to imitate scales, overlapping for a vibrant mosaic effect.
04 - Form the eyes using blackberries or large blueberries, securing with toothpicks if necessary. Place blueberries or grapes as nostrils and additional facial details.
05 - Use pineapple slices, carrot sticks, or strawberries to fashion spikes, horns, or flames according to preference. Garnish with mint leaves for leafy accents.
06 - Fill any gaps with extra grapes, berries, or edible flowers to enhance visual appeal.
07 - Refrigerate until ready to serve. Provide toothpicks or small forks alongside for easy picking.
