Watermelon fruit cake

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   Wash the whole watermelon well and cut off its top and “butt”.

2. STEP 2

   

   Turn the watermelon over.

3. STEP 3

   

   Using a sharp long knife, start cutting out the core

4. STEP 4

   

   Carefully following the border.

5. STEP 5

   

   It is important not to take away the white pulp, cut off only the red one.

6. STEP 6

   

   When the core is cut out,

7. STEP 7

   

   cut the watermelon rind with one cut downwards

8. STEP 8

   

   And remove the core from the peel. You will get a cylinder like this. To make a piece of the future cake look beautiful on the plate sideways, you can make it no higher than 15 cm. Although this is not for everyone.

9. STEP 9

   

   Watermelon releases juice, so let it drain and cool in the refrigerator.

10. STEP 10

    

    The cream is easier to apply to a chilled watermelon. You need to start from the top.

11. STEP 11

    

    Beat chilled heavy cream with stevia and vanilla until fluffy and creamy. Your mixing bowl should also be cold. I do this with a blender with a mixing attachment - its speed is very high.

12. STEP 12

    

    Very quickly coat the watermelon with cream, starting from the top and ending with the sides. Then just as quickly decorate with chopped berries and fruits. In the picture you can see an example of decoration.

13. STEP 13

    

    You can use absolutely any berries or fruits for decoration. In our case, we cut the grapes into 2 halves, and the raspberries too. Peeled pear - into thin slices, kiwi into thin circles. Everything should be thin, because the whipped cream is delicate and will not support the weight of the heavy fruit on the sides of the cake.

14. STEP 14

    

    It is advisable to serve the watermelon cake immediately so that it does not start to “melt”.

Awesome watermelon cake!!! But in my family they manage to bring the watermelon to the table, then we immediately cut it and eat it. I think that this way the body receives more nutrients!!! I once made desserts from watermelon, but they sat in the refrigerator for a long time, unused.

Well, this dessert option is suitable for those with a sweet tooth who want a cake, but lighter.

It looks very appetizing. But I have a question. Where did the bones go?

They haven’t gone anywhere) the bones are all there. For this cake, the main thing is to choose a watermelon with white soft seeds. Otherwise, you still have to spit them out and eat them carefully.
