The list goes on.
These are just a few names of the celebrities Ernest “Ernie” Lamar has met in person, or simply had encouragement or words promoting the Flint artist’s unique craft fruit carving.
Lamar, 27 of Flint, started the business Ernie Fruits in 2018 after his sister requested he chop some fruit to make a platter for her baby shower.
Since the baby shower, Lamar’s business has become the centerpiece for nightclub events, parties, festivals and celebrations as well as a source of joy and healthy treats.
