Notes
NOTE: You can prep the elements of this fruit pizza in advance but wait to assemble until right before you eat. You can bake the crust and cover it, whip up the frosting and store in an airtight container in the fridge, and wash and dry the fruit. Frost and layer with fruit right before serving.
