Got this rotating ornamental serving set from my FIL, what could I serve in it?

I received this charming rotating serving set from my father-in-law, who discovered it at a charity shop. He knows I have a knack for finding great deals and a passion for entertaining! The dishes are a nice size—not too big or too small. I’ve included an apple for scale. I’d love to hear your ideas on what I can serve in it. The more suggestions, the better!
