Selecting Strawberries: Choose firm, ripe strawberries to ensure they hold up well on the skewers.
Marshmallow Tip: If the marshmallows are too sticky, you can briefly chill them in the fridge to make them easier to handle.
Presentation: Arrange the kabobs in a star shape or in rows on a red, white, and blue platter for an extra patriotic touch.
Substitutions: You can use raspberries instead of strawberries or mix in some blackberries for a different flavor and color variation. For a healthier option, replace the mini marshmallows with white cheese cubes, such as mozzarella.
