Anytime is a good time to surprise someone with a fruit basket. Fresh, healthy, and delicious, it’s a gift suitable for almost any occasion. This season, choose something delectable from Dole/Tropical Fruits Distributors of Hawaii. Based in Honolulu, HI, this company is one of the world’s largest fruit distributors.

Whether it’s a birthday, a holiday, or even “just because,” fruit is a timeless gift everyone will love. Here are some ideas for creating a festive, memorable fruit basket to suit any occasion:

• Make It Colorful: Amplify the presentation of your basket by including many different types of fruits. Fresh pineapple from Dole/Tropical Fruits Distributors of Hawaii is a great starting point. It’s juicy, sweet, and brightens up any basket instantly. Add additional fruit of contrasting color, like red apples, mandarin oranges, plums, and green grapes, to bring the entire basket to life.
• Fill Small Spaces: After a basket is filled with larger fruits, small holes will be evident. Add smaller fruits in these spots, such as strawberries or dates. You can even include nuts or pieces of wrapped chocolate to mix it up.
• Choose A Theme: You can easily design your fruit basket with a theme to make it even more suitable for a specific occasion. Add a small balloon to a birthday basket, or give it a fresh seasonal slant by using a piece of fruit itself as a basket. For example, a hollowed out watermelon makes a strong and sturdy basket for an abundance of fruit, while an emptied out apple can be filled with chopped fruits and fashioned into a cute miniature basket.

Dole/Tropical Fruits Distributors of Hawaii is home to the freshest locally grown fruits on Oahu. No matter where you are in the world, you can order cases of fresh pineapple to get started on your own fruit basket design.
