Step 1: Choose your fruit (shop local, shop seasonal, shop at Tropical Fruit World)

From what’s in season at Christmas, pick 5–7 fruits:

• Mangoes (various varieties)
• Dragon fruit (all colours)
• Lychees
• Figs
• Kiwi fruit
• Wax jambu / water cherry
• White sapote or mamey sapote
• Soursop (best served pre-prepared)
• Tropical Fruit World Dried Fruits

Step 2: Assemble by colour

• Start with mango and dragon fruit as your base
• Add creamy fruits (white or mamey sapote)
• Fill gaps with lychees and kiwi
• Finish with figs and wax jambu for texture and shine
• Garnish with dried citrus, dried star fruit or dried jakfruit

Chill briefly before serving.

Step 3: Serve & enjoy

Perfect alongside seafood, Christmas lunch, or as a light dessert. See below for products from our farm that would complement your platter perfectly. Add small tongs or toothpicks and let guests graze.

Why choose local?

Using in-season tropical fruit from Tropical Fruit World means better flavour, less food miles, and supporting Australian farmers. It’s Christmas the way summer intended - fresh, colourful and proudly local.
