Steps to perform the fruit slice effect in Photoshop 

The fruit slice effect in Photoshop is actually not difficult, with a combination of many tools such as Pen Tool, Ellipse Tool,... will help you have a realistic design. Specifically, the steps to perform the fruit slice effect in Photoshop are as follows: 

Step 1: The first step we need to create a working file to create the fruit slice effect in Photoshop on it. To create a new file, on the menu bar, select New... => set appropriate parameters => OK. 

Or you can also use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+O and fill in the parameters, then click OK.

Step 2: Now upload the image of the fruit you want to create the fruit slice effect in Photoshop. For example, I will create an effect on a strawberry. Use the Magic Eraser Tool to separate the fruit from the background, or you can use the Quick Selection Tool to create a selection on the strawberry and then separate the fruit from the background. If your fruit is already in PNG format, just upload the image to Photoshop.

Step 3: In the working file containing the fruit, on the toolbar use the Move Tool to drag the fruit to the blank file you initially created. Then press Ctrl + T and adjust the fruit size accordingly.

Step 4: Now use the Pen Tool on the toolbar to create a selection above the strawberry you want to create a fruit slice effect in Photoshop. Use anchor points to adjust for the smoothest cut.

Then we right-click on the image and select Make Selection... to create a selection for the cut fruit.

In the Make Selection dialog box that appears, set Feather Radius to 0, in the Operation section select New Selection. Then select OK. Now we have a selection of the upper half of the strawberry cut off.

Step 5: Now press the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+J to cut this selection out. Then adjust the size and position according to your ideas.

Step 6: Repeat steps 4 and 5 on the bottom of the strawberry to get another slice of fruit slice effect in Photoshop.

Step 7: On the toolbar, select Ellipse Tool to draw an ellipse the same size as a strawberry slice.

Then press the key combination Ctrl + T and adjust the position and size of the ellipse to fit the slice. During the adjustment process, you can press Ctrl and drag the mouse at the anchor points to get the most suitable size and position.

Step 8: Upload the photo of a strawberry slice to Photoshop. Then use the Move Tool to drag it to the file containing the strawberry that needs to create the fruit slice effect in Photoshop. Rearrange the layer position so that the strawberry slice layer is directly above the first slice.

Step 9: At the lemon slice layer, right-click and select Create Clipping Mask.

Then we will press Ctrl + T and then adjust the size of the strawberry slice to fit the new ellipse.

Repeat step 9 with the slice below.

Finally, we have the result:
