It's no secret that I love the Fab Fruit and for a while now when speaking to people about it a common question has been how much clearance there is with a particular cup?

I decided to start a pictorial reference for people here: http://tinyurl.com/28fvwh7

Hope it helps...

Great comparison Bri, I also like the fab fruit. I have them now for about 10 years (give or take a year) and they still look like new.The set I have consist of 4 pieces (potato, onion, lemon and a lime). They are easy handle and easy to load.

Great pics.

Thanks Etienne, I see the lemon in your avatar!  Are yours the first type then? I know he remodelled them after the Encore cups were released....

Hey Bri… the Cups and Fab Fruit pictures or should I say Fruit Cup pictures look fantastic. The bright colors of the fruit really make the different patinas pop.

Yes Bri,

These were on the market before the Encore cups, so they are bigger than the new ones (I've been told).

BTW I made a mistake, it isn't an onion but a turnip.

Here they are all four in a early collection pic.

Thanks Etienne,

They look really nice.  I remember now, Michael says (as he lifts the cup with the turnip) "You never know what might turn-ip!"

That's right. How could I forget that line. Time to watch the dvd's again.

Nice pics.

I'm also a big fan of the fab fruit.

They have center stage in my cup display.

A quick update...

For some reason, last week everything remotely relating to IT went haywire and nobody could work out what it was.  At one point everything on all of the websites vanished and I had no access to email whatsoever.

Also, many of the links stopped working too.  While the site has been restored, many links are still causing people problems.

Just in case, here is the working link:

Bri… I am glad that your great website is working again for you. Again the pictures of your Cups with the Fab Fruit look fantastic.

Here is to hoping all stays working for you!
