Marbling is the technique used to transform these summer pies into works of art. intensely flavored fruit purees intertwine in decorative swirls, streaks, and zigzags. Start with brightly hued, cooked fruit mixtures, cool to thicken, and spoon into a baked crust. Then pull a chopstick from one color into another to marble. You can make pies a day ahead, but the designs grow less distinct on standing. Marbled Summer Fruit Pie
