If you want to learn how to carve fruits, you can attend our fruit and vegetable carving for beginners classes in Doha Qatar. Our courses familiarize you with fruit carving techniques, styles, and fruit carving tools.
Fruit carving requires a small amount of investment in its tools. You need to buy a garnishing tool kit that includes short-bladed seeding knives, wavy-edged cutters, and longer knives for peeling. Preserving the carved fruits to prevent them from spoilage should also be known. After carving, soak the carved fruit in icy water to strengthen its texture. However, do not leave the fruit in water for a time longer than required. This will discolor the fruit and make it soggy. Keep the carved fruit carefully in the refrigerator.
One only needs concentration and patience to perform the task of fruit carving. Before carving, you can keep the following vegetable carving tips in your mind. Firstly, the vegetables must be washed and cleaned properly to remove all the dirt. Secondly, the knife to be used for carving should be sharp enough to cut through the vegetables easily. Try to use stainless steel knives. Thirdly, carefully choose the design pattern taking into consideration the type of food and the target guests. For example, carving out animal figures from vegetables may be repulsive for the guests. On the other hand, carving out a zoo on a birthday cake for kids will make it more appetizing for them. The texture and freshness of the vegetables is also an important factor. For example, tomatoes should be bright, red and firm. Potatoes should be round and fresh. Fiber-rich vegetables, like carrots and cucumbers should be of uniform size.

Vegetable carving is a form of food decoration. Vegetable carving is the art of carving out vegetables to create attractive figures, such as flowers and birds. The purpose of vegetable carving is to make the food look more appealing and tastier. Historical records show that vegetable carving originated in Thailand and China almost 800 years ago.

The artisans opted for root crops like carrots along with other vegetables like peppers and tomatoes to carve out birds like parrots, and flowers like roses.
