About the show

Kae Sa Lak: The Thai Art of Carving

Thai fruit and vegetable carving, kae sa lak, is a traditional art that was once practised in the royal palace. Using a small, sharp carving knife, artists cut detailed flowers, leaves and patterns into fruit and vegetables.

At events, a carver at work draws a crowd: guests watch a watermelon turn into a rose or a company logo in minutes. Workshops are relaxed and suit all ages, and every guest leaves with a photo of their own creation.

FAQ

Thai Fruit Carving: FAQ

What is kae sa lak?

Kae sa lak is the traditional Thai art of carving fruit and vegetables into decorative shapes such as flowers and birds.

Can you carve our logo?

Yes. Send us the logo in advance and our carver prepares a design suitable for fruit.

How many guests can join a workshop?

Small groups work best, around 10 to 20 guests per carver. For larger groups we bring more carvers.

Is fruit carving safe for guests?

Yes. Guests use small carving knives under close guidance, and we brief everyone before they start.

How far in advance should we book?

Two to four weeks is usually enough for Thai fruit carving. For December to April in Phuket, Songkran, Chinese New Year and other peak dates, book as early as possible to secure your preferred performers.
