Haven't made yet -- but sounds like a very pretty and special holiday buffet recipe. Can be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated (about 6 hours, but not much more than that).

I'm not a huge fan of fruit, but I loved this wreath. The chocolate coating really balances out the tartness of the fruit.
