The five year old at my house is ALL AMERICAN. As soon as I told him about my plan to make Red, White and Blue Fruit Skewers he wanted to stop everything and assemble this simple Patriotic treat. Just like Banana Split On A Stick these Fruit and Cake Skewers come together in minutes. And so we stopped everything to make them.
