Starfruit  Flowers
Starfruit (or carambola) has a unique shape that makes it a natural fruit decoration! Flowers made from carambola look great on the edge of the plate. You can use this garnish with cold meats, pates and any dessert.

2. Slice the fruit about 1/5 in.(5mm) thick.

Use the sliced star fruit on its own or with another fruit such as kiwi. Show your own imagination and create a beautiful garnish or dessert.
