Wash and dry the strawberries.

Place the prepared strawberries in a large bowl.

Add 1 pint of raspberries and 1 pint of blueberries to the bowl.

Slice off one end of the honey crisp apples to create a flat edge.

Slice the apple into 1/4 inch slices.

Use mini star-shaped cookie cutters to punch out stars from the apple slices.

Minimize waste by using the larger star cutter on the edges and the smaller one for the center.

Place the apple stars into the bowl with the berries.

Combine 2-3 tablespoons of honey with the juice from 1 lemon and 1 orange in a bowl.

Stir the honey and juice mixture well, removing any seeds.

Pour the honey and juice mixture over the fruit salad and gently fold together, being careful not to mash the raspberries.

Arrange some apple stars on top of the fruit salad for presentation.
