can you use to shape fruit

Just went and tried it out on a carrot and an apple. It cut right through the carrot just fine and imprinted the hello kitty design really well. The apple worked well too. I'm not sure how well it would work on softer fruits. Hope this helps.

I used it on fondant but I can say the I think you can use it to shape soft fruits.

No, I dont believe it would work for that. I use it to cut fondant for cakes and it works wonderful. I dont believe that you would have any luck trying to use it on vegetables.

I cannot think of a fruit large enough to work. I suppose they would cut soft fruit with the density of play dough or less.

I don't, but I don't see why it wouldn't work for that. Just make sure you don't get it to cold and freeze the fruit.

I haven't tried any of the small seeded berries, but there are instructions in the 'recipe booklet' for steaming them. It should work as long as you don't mash the berries after or while they are cooking. (You aren't supposed to mash any of the fruit while it is in the steam...unless you are intentionally trying to get some of the pulp.)

I doubt it because it only peels the vry round apples well. Apples shaped like delicious apples do not peel well at all.

I have only tried apples but I am sure it would work with most round fruit anywhere from a couple of inches in diameter to 6 or 7 inches.

This blade works great with all fruits. However, try to avoid using it with frozen fruit or frozen dough, since the plastic can crack.

You shouldn't have to. However I never used either of those fruits. I did cut my apples in half I they were extra large. Also. .... Cut the rind off of lemons , oranges and limes.

Yes. Just use a ruler for straight line cut and you can cut any shape even a design if you are creative.

You could use them to cut fruit, but most of them are probably too big for a fruit-flower arrangement type thing.

I've never considered using it for that; I think I'd rather mash them with a fork or put them into a blender. A food mill is more suited to squeezing pulp and juices out of fruits and vegetables (such as cooked apples or tomatoes) while retaining the peel and seeds.

It has done a very nice job on all the different sizes and shapes of apples I have put in it. Note, the apples do need to have a fairly smooth surface as if it is a badly deformed piece of fruit the cutter cannot get down into grooves. My granddaughter and great grandkids were here when I was doing applesauce and they all wanted one, fun and easy to use.

no i didn't. i wash and cut the whole fruit and put it in and filled up with water. you can use the fruit a couple of times to make it more cost effective. hope this helps

Absolutely! I find it particularly useful in concave shaping. It certainly can be used in a convex scenario such as in long flowing curves of an abstract form but I think it is more at home digging in. Happy sculpting!!

I seriously doubt it. You have to poke the fruit to hold it in place on one end and I would think that would make a mess you would not want to clean up.

Probably not. It is not the intended use.The blender is for soft fruits and veggies.

I don't see why not. They're decent cutters. Just be sure not to slice the fruit too thickly as it's the devil's own work to get stuff out of these cutters with a food pick if the food is thick.
