This dessert pizza is beautiful and loaded with flavors through its colorful layers of fruit. Or, fruit pizza for breakfast, anyone?
This season's finale was shocking...well...shocking for those of you who did not pay a visit to RealitySteve. I was one to go read the spoilers, so I knew what was going to happen..just not exactly how.
The symbol for the Bachelor's acceptance of the ladies he decides to keep each week is a rose. He stands in front of all the women from the week and starts handing out roses one by one. However, there are fewer roses than girls, so someone's always going home. When he hands out the rose, he usually says something like "So-and-So, will you accept this rose?" and So-and-So usually says something like "absolutely!"
Your Questions Answered:
How far in advance can I make fruit pizza without it getting soggy?
My advice is to bake the crust and then wait until the day of to add the toppings.

how about under the pizza dough under the fruits..i want dough's recipii
Pennies on a Platter says
Hi NUR,
The cookie dough I use for the fruit pizza is just store-bought refrigerated cookie dough. It's an 18oz package. I stick with using the Pillsbury brand as I've tried generic ones and it didn't turn out as nicely. You can probably use your favorite homemade cookie dough recipe, but I haven't tried that. 🙂
Thanks,
Nikki

How did you make the rose? I have to make an edible cell for biology and thought that could make a good nucleus. Just wondering if it was tricky! if you could get back to me that would be great. =]
Pennies on a Platter says
Hi Kelsey, I just used a paring knife and sliced thin slices around the strawberry, starting with the narrow side of the strawberry. But, do not cut all the way down so that it's still attached. (That is the middle of the strawberry.) Then, I used other strawberries to slice similar thin pieces and set those around the center to create the bigger rose.

LOL, sounds like fun and your fruit pizza looks great. Your strawberrSo, how'd you get your bananas not to start browning? I have some of that fruit fresh that you are supposed to sprinkle on fruit to keep them from browning but I've yet to try it.

Hi Ingrid... To keep the bananas from browning, just splash a little bit of lemon juice on them. Works wonders! (I'll edit the post and add this tip...) 🙂
