Start by thoroughly washing the grapes and strawberries under cold running water. Pat them completely dry with a paper towel, as any moisture will make the fruit slippery and harder to assemble. Remove the green stems from the strawberries by cutting a straight line across the top, which creates a flat base for the hat to sit on.
Peel your bananas and cut them into rounds about half an inch thick. You will need 24 slices in total. To prevent the banana slices from browning too quickly, you can lightly toss them in a small amount of lemon or lime juice, though this is optional if you plan to serve them immediately.
Take a toothpick and slide a green grape toward the bottom, leaving enough room at the end to hold. Next, slide a banana slice onto the toothpick so it sits right on top of the grape. This represents the white fur trim of the Santa hat.
Place a strawberry onto the toothpick with the wide, cut side touching the banana. The pointed end of the strawberry should be facing up. If you like, you can add a tiny piece of banana or a small plant-based marshmallow to the very tip of the strawberry to look like the pom-pom on the hat. Repeat this process until all 24 bites are finished.
