Instructions
- Cut the cantaloupe in half and remove all seeds from 1/2 with a spoon. Slice a tiny bit off the bottom so it sits flat like a bowl. Place on a plate.
- Place cantaloupe half with seeds, seed side down on a plate.
- In a bowl, whisk together yogurt and honey; pour into the cantaloupe bowl for dip.
- To make wands, slide cubes of fruit onto skewers, leaving 1 inch at both ends of each skewer. Stick 1 end into cantaloupe half, top the skewer with a strawberry.

Love this! Will be a staple at my bar-b-ques this summer as well. Great way to get small ones to eat fruit!
I don’t buy vanilla yogurt (too much sugar and fake taste). Instead, I buy Greek (or Greek style) plain. Much more delicious and nutritious. Anyway, every single container I have purchased comes with the serving suggestion to eat it with honey. Once again, this is not a recipe. Also, the skewers would be impossible to serve and eat if presented in the way Sandra did on air.
Thanks for sharing this crowd pleaser. Heated the honey just a bit in the microwave before mixing it into the room-temperature yogurt.
This is so easy its ridiculous! We love honey so the sauce was great. I will make sure I do this in a turkey tail presentation for Thanksgiving and something as clever for Christmas.
This is really easy cooking. I loved it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The sauce was yummy.
I made these for my daughter’s strawberry themed 3rd birthday party. I placed them in a bowl and they made up the center piece of the table. Everyone loved them. Kids and adults! The yogart dip wasn’t touched as much as I thought, but I think that had more to do with there being too much food than the receipe itself. I was asked by my mom to make sure I made these for Christmas!
Made the wands without the dipping sauce. This is really easy and my family was very impressed with the presentation. Makes eating good food even funner. Try it for a party, it’s sure to please.
I did the fruit skewers, but I cut star fruit and put it on top so it looked more like a fairy wand. It turned out cute! 🙂 I also used a small watermelon one time and a honeydew the next for the dip bowl and used Sandra’s suggetion to color the dip pink. This contrast was prettier than the cantalope.
They looked perfect and got the kids eating their fruit. The sauce was yummy. I also used this for a brunch with adults and they loved it too.
This not only looked good they gobbled it up
