Recommended Products - I love a large wooden cutting board to assemble this appetizer board. This is the specific board I used (it's 16 x 12 inches) - it makes a great cheese board as well. You can use a large plate or another type of large platter you'd like. A round board can be cute if you'd like a more traditional rainbow shape.
Serving Notes - The fruit board should not sit out of the fridge for more than 4 hours. If the fruit will be sitting out for a few hours, you can squeeze a little lemon juice (especially over the banana) to keep it from browning.
