Use a guideline of 1/2 oz. dried fruit, 2 Tbsp. sweet dip, pudding, nut butter or spread, 1/2 oz. nuts or nut mix, and 1/2 oz. of cookies for each serving. For a well-balanced board, fill in empty spaces with fresh fruit.

Along with the fruit, have plenty of OREO Thins Bites, Mini CHIPS AHOY! Cookies and NUTTER BUTTER Cookie Bites on hand for dipping.

Tips and Tricks

Special Extra: For easier dipping, skewer some of the fruit, such as a pineapple cube and some berries, on short bamboo skewers.

Use Fruit in Season: For freshest flavor, choose fruits that are in season. Complimentary shapes and colors, such as sliced red apples and bunches of green grapes, add visual interest.

Special Extra: Garnish with fresh mint sprigs.
