Watermelon Cake

Ingredients
  • Whipped cream or Coconut Whipped cream (recipe below)
  • 1 Large Watermelon cut in a circle like a cake (see photo above)
  • Blueberries
  • Raspberries
  • Almonds
Instructions
  1. Cut your watermelon based on the photo tutorial in the post.
  2. Pat the watermelon down with wipes to dry it.
  3. Frost it with whipped cream
  4. Add Almonds to the side
  5. Decorate the top with fresh fruit of your choice. I like raspberries and blueberries.

Ingredients:
- 1 cup Heavy Cream (cold)
- 2 tablespoons of Sugar (or Powdered Sugar)
- Optional: 1/2 teaspoon of Pure Vanilla (clear for pure white color)

Double the recipe for big batches
2 cups Heavy Cream (cold)
4 tablespoons of Sugar (or Powdered Sugar)
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 0 minutes
Yield: 8 Servings

Instructions for the Best Homemade Whipped Cream:
I usually put my mixer bowl and whisk attachment in the refrigerator to get it cold before I start but this is not necessary.
Add all the ingredients in a mixer.
Start on a low speed to incorporate all the ingredients together then whip on high until you have peaks.
Keep checking the stiffness of your whipped cream because you can get it to different levels. Voila! That’s it!
Note: Stop at soft peeks if you are using it for just a topping of a dessert. Make it a stiffer if you are going to use it on a cake. I used a really stiff whipped cream for my No Bake Watermelon Cake Recipe seen here.
