Ingredients
21 wooden skewers (6-inch or 8-inch)
2 cups strawberries (284g / 10oz), halved or quartered
2 cups mango (280g), cubed
1.5 cups pineapple (210g), cubed
1.5 cups kiwi (150g), sliced
1 cup blueberries (150g)
2 oz (56g) cream cheese (softened)
1 tablespoon unsalted butter (softened)
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional: 1 lemon (for juice to prevent browning)
Instructions
Wash and prepare all fruits: halve/quart strawberries, cube mango/pineapple, slice kiwi
Use skewers to layer fruits in rainbow order (red-orange-yellow-green-blue)
Repeat until all skewers are assembled (21 total)
In a small bowl, blend cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth
Serve skewers with cheesecake dip in a bowl
Notes
Arrange fruits in a true rainbow sequence for visual impact
Use parchment paper as a catching pad under skewers
Dip can be prepared up to 24 hours ahead
Substitute blueberries with grapes or blackberries
Fruits may brown slightly over time—add a squeeze of lemon juice to brighten colors
