Four Important Steps of Fruit Carving
Prepare Your Canvas
Choose the right fruit (like watermelon, papaya, or pumpkin), wash it well, and gently pat it dry. A smooth, firm surface is key to clean carving.

Start Carving with Control
Begin with shallow, light cuts — always carving away from your hand. Use proper tools and take your time. Precision is more important than speed.
Refine and Add Details
Slowly deepen the design, add textures, petals, or facial details. Clean edges and smooth finishing touches will bring your carving to life.
