Keeping chopped fruit looking fresh ..

Fruit thats been chopped can change color very quickly, anyone knows any tips to prevent that happening for atleast an hour ?

I normally coat the fruit with orange juice or lemon juice and it helps but only for a while …

Make a light sugar syrup and add lemon juice to it, then cover tightly in cling film. Always works for me. I don't chop up fruit too early if possible though.

I was going to suggest the same as brit chick, I've not tried the sugar syrup tirck yet, but someone gave me the tip recently.

Squeeze some lemon juice over the fruit...and it'll prevent the browning.
