# Tips from the pros:

01 -
  • Everyone gets to play chef and make something uniquely theirs without you sweating over a stove.
  • It tastes like indulgence but comes together in the time it takes to brew coffee.
  • The whole thing feels romantic and celebratory, even if you're just doing it on a random Tuesday.
02 -
  • Slice your strawberries right before serving—they'll start weeping their juice into the yogurt if you do it too early, which changes the texture but honestly tastes amazing if that's what you're going for.
  • If you're prepping this more than 15 minutes ahead, keep everything except the yogurt in the fridge and assemble the fruit stations just before people arrive.
03 -
  • Chill all your serving bowls in the freezer for 10 minutes before people arrive—it keeps everything cold longer and feels like a small luxury you didn't have to work for.
  • If someone has a nut allergy, keep the almonds and granola in labeled bowls so people can navigate their own preferences without you becoming the allergy police.
