Wholesale Bamboo Fruit Fork – Bulk Supply & OEM Factory

Your Wholesale Bamboo Fruit Fork Supplier

Fruit forks are a small product with an outsized impact on how your food presentation is perceived. A plain toothpick in a fruit platter says nothing. A decorative bamboo fruit fork with an elk, bird, or flower design says “we thought about this.”

Hotels, buffet restaurants, catering companies, dessert bars, fruit shops, and event planners go through thousands of these per week. The product is disposable but the impression it creates is not. That is why the design, finish, and consistency of your fruit forks matter as much as the price.

FriendlyBamboo has supplied decorative bamboo fruit forks in bulk to hospitality, food service, and wholesale distribution businesses across 30+ countries for over 12 years. Creative designs, plain styles, custom packaging — all from mature Moso bamboo with FSC, FDA, and ISO certification.

Available Designs

Creative Elk Design Fruit Fork — Distinctive elk-shaped head carved at the top of a two-pronged fork. The animal silhouette adds a playful, natural aesthetic to fruit platters, cheese boards, and dessert stations. Eye-catching on buffet displays and Instagram-worthy in styled food photography. Available in 9cm (3.5 inch) length. Our bestselling design.

Cute Character Design Fruit Fork — Rounded, cartoon-style character head at the top. Friendly, approachable look that appeals especially to children’s parties, family buffets, and casual dining. Available in 9cm length. Multiple character variations available at volume.

Tori Bird Design Fruit Fork (Japanese Style) — Elegant bird silhouette inspired by traditional Japanese design. The “tori” (bird) shape brings a refined aesthetic to upscale fruit presentations, Japanese restaurant service, and boutique hotel amenities. A conversation piece on any platter. Available in 9cm length.

Kids Fruit Picks — Simplified, child-friendly designs with rounded edges and blunt fork tines. Designed specifically for children’s food service — school catering, kids’ party packs, family restaurant kids’ menus, and pediatric hospital meal trays. Safety is the priority: no sharp points, no small detachable parts, smooth finish throughout.

Plain Bamboo Fruit Forks — Simple two-pronged fork without decorative elements. Clean, minimal design for operations that want a functional fruit pick without ornamental features. Suitable for everyday fruit service, salad bars, and back-of-house food prep. The most cost-effective option. Available in 9cm length. Packaged in OPP bags, PET boxes, or color boxes.

Bamboo Fruit Fork (OPP/PET Box/Color Box) — Standard 9cm plain fruit fork available in multiple retail-ready packaging formats. OPP bag for bulk food service. PET box for clear-view retail display. Color box with printed graphics for branded retail sale. Same fork, different packaging to match your distribution channel.

Sizes & Specifications

Standard size is 9cm (3.5 inches) across all designs. This length is optimized for picking fruit pieces, cheese cubes, dessert bites, and small appetisers. The two-prong design grips food securely without splitting delicate items like melon, strawberry, or soft cheese. Custom sizes available at higher MOQs.

Wholesale Pricing

Decorative fruit forks cost more per piece than plain toothpicks or skewers because each piece involves detailed CNC cutting for the design element. Even so, pricing stays under 3 cents per piece at wholesale — a negligible cost that dramatically elevates your food presentation.
