A festive and healthy Christmas fruit tree made with low-sugar berries, kiwi slices, and a sprinkle of unsweetened coconut flakes resembling snow. This beautiful fruit display serves as a perfect centerpiece for brunch or dessert tables during the holidays.

  • Total Time: 20 mins
  • Yield: 12 servings

Ingredients

Fruit

  • 1 cup strawberries, hulled and halved
  • 1 cup raspberries
  • 1 cup blackberries
  • 2 kiwis, peeled and sliced

Other

  • ¼ cup unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 1 styrofoam cone or a clean fruit tower base
  • Toothpicks as needed

Instructions

  1. Prepare the base: Wrap the styrofoam cone completely in aluminum foil or plastic wrap to ensure cleanliness and create a stable surface for the fruit.
  2. Assemble the fruit layers: Skewer the strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, and kiwi slices onto toothpicks and carefully insert them into the cone, starting from the bottom and working upward. Arrange the fruits in overlapping layers to create a full and visually appealing tree shape.
  3. Fill any gaps: Use smaller berries or additional kiwi slices to fill in any empty spaces, ensuring the tree looks dense and colorful.
  4. Add the coconut snow: Sprinkle the unsweetened coconut flakes over the assembled fruit tree to mimic snow, enhancing the festive look.
  5. Chill and serve: Refrigerate the fruit tree until ready to serve, keeping it fresh and cool for your guests.

Notes

  • Use only keto-friendly fruits such as berries and kiwi slices to keep the recipe low in sugar.
  • Serve alongside a yogurt dip for added flavor and creaminess.
  • Ensure all fruit is fresh and washed thoroughly before assembling.
