Step‑by‑Step Instructions for 4th of July Fruit Kabobs
  1. Begin by cutting the pound cake into small, even cubes, aiming for about an inch in size for balanced stacking. Rinse blueberries in cold water, and gently slice the strawberries in half.
  2. Take wooden skewers and start threading the ingredients in an alternating pattern, leaving about an inch of space at the ends for easy handling.
  3. In a microwave-safe bowl, microwave the white chocolate melting wafers in 30-second intervals, stirring until fully melted and smooth.
  4. Lay the assembled kabobs flat on a parchment-lined tray and drizzle the melted chocolate over the kabobs in a zigzag motion. Allow to set for about 10 minutes.
  5. Once the chocolate has firmed up, transfer the kabobs to a serving platter and enjoy fresh at your summer gatherings.
