FAQs about this snack

Yes! As long as the grapes are fresh and firm, these cups can be made a day or two in advance. Store them in a refrigerator.

You can use other green fruit like honeydew or kiwi slices.

If the cup is wet, it might smudge. It is best to dry the cups completely before using the Sharpie, and let the Sharpie dry completely before touching it.
