Ingredients
- 1 watermelon the larger the better!
- 3 skewers
For Cake Decoration
- 1 dragonfruit any color of your choice
- 1-2 cup blueberries
- 1 packet toothpicks
Instructions
Slice and Shape the Watermelon
- Cut both ends off the watermelon to create a flat base.
- Slice three thick, round sections of varying diameters (large, medium, small) to create the three tiers.
- Trim the edges of each layer to achieve smooth, even circles.
Stack the Tiers
- Place the largest watermelon slice at the base.
- Stack the medium-sized slice on top, centring it.
- Pierce through 3 of the skewer sticks to stop the watermelon tiers from sliding off.
- Add the smallest slice at the very top to complete the three tiers.
- Cut away any of the skewer sticks protruding out. Alternatively, you can conceal the skewer sticks but decorating with fruit.
Decorate with Dragon Fruit and Blueberries
- Slice dragon fruit and cut into fun shapes (such as hearts, stars, or circles).
- Use toothpicks to attach the dragon fruit pieces around the cake for a decorative touch.
- Arrange blueberries and additional dragon fruit chunks to create a cascading effect down the side of the cake. The fruit can be secured with toothpicks or can also be placed loose on top of the cake (I use a combination of both toothpicks and some loose berries)
Serve and Enjoy!
- Your 3-tiered watermelon cake is now ready to impress! Serve immediately or refrigerate until needed.
