Arrange the kiwi slices over the strawberries around the edge of the bowl. Top with the orange sections, papaya slices and red grapes. Pour the dressing evenly over the top. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Refrigerate the salad until ready to serve, for up to 1 day.
3. To serve the salad: Just before serving, sprinkle the almonds over the dressing. Present the salad to the diners. Transfer the salad to a large, clean dish pan or roasting pan. Gently toss the salad so all the ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing.
