Ok. \u00a0Moving on then. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">If you prefer to fill the middle of the cake with fresh berries, or other fruit, totally do that! \u00a0It would make a fruit surprise inside pinata cake! \u00a0I liked the watermelon in the center best as out of the three different melons, it is definitely my favourite. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Triple Melon Cake<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Serves 8 people<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Ingredients:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">1 Watermelon<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">1 Cantaloupe<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">1 Honeydew<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">2 cups whipping cream<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u00bc cup icing sugar<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">1 teaspoon vanilla extract<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Fresh fruit for garnish (strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, kiwis etc)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\"><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/DSC_4597site.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-7207\" title=\"Watermelon cake\" src=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/DSC_4597site.jpg\" alt=\"Watermelon cake\" width=\"599\" height=\"337\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/DSC_4597site.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/DSC_4597site-300x168.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 599px) 100vw, 599px\" \/><\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Procedure:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Cut 1\u00bd\u201d thick, round slices from largest part of melons (layers of the cake): two from the watermelon, and one from each of the cantaloupe and honeydew. \u00a0Trim rind with a sharp knife and punch out seeds with a 2\u00be\u201d round cutter.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Using the excess watermelon pieces, and the same round cutter, cut two additional watermelon rounds (2\u00be\u201d) to fill the holes left in the centre of the cantaloupe and honeydew layers.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Prepare whipping cream by placing cream in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, and whip on high speed until soft peaks form. \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Once the cream has thickened, add the icing sugar and vanilla extract, and continue to whip until stiff peaks form.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Place one watermelon layer onto a plate, or cake board, and cover with whipping cream. \u00a0Place cantaloupe (or honeydew) layer next (with melon round filling hole in the middle). \u00a0Place honeydew layer next (with melon round filling hole in the middle) and cover with whipping cream.
