how to keep fruit salads from turning brown?
We highly recommend using citrus fruits. They won’t turn brown when exposed to the air. If you do add fruits that turn brown easily, just simply toss with a citrus juice (orange, lemon, lime, etc.) previous to combining with other fruits to slow the oxidation.

Ingredients for an Ice Cream Cone Fruit Salad
Use your favorite fruit combo for your fruit salad. First, you will want to wash all of your fruits under cold running water. Next, you will want to cut and dice your fruits. You can keep it simple, or you can do a variety of fun cuts to mix it up!
Plus, you can even mix diced fruit together with greek yogurt and serve in the ice cream cone for an added twist!
How to Make Fruit Salad Ice Cream Cones
Begin by preparing the fruit you have chosen to use in your fruit salad (wash and cut). Keep in mind that smaller pieces will be easier to eat, especially if serving to children.
Next, we recommend placing the ice cream cone in a mason jar or a cup to hold the ice cream cone upright to prevent any fruit from falling out.
Next, layer in your fruit pieces and top with sprinkles, granola or mini chocolate chips or whatever you would like!
Serve and enjoy!
