Many sweet-tooths are looking for a delicious and simple dessert recipe that contains as few calories as possible. However, it is difficult to find something that is not only tasty, but also healthy. Fruit cake is a great alternative to high-calorie biscuits. The peculiarity of such a “cake” is that fruits act as “cakes” here.
Pick your recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 medium watermelon
- 300 g of grapes
- 2 apples
- Large pineapple - 1 pc.
- Kiwi - 2 pcs.
- Any fruit can be added as desired.
Cooking:
- Wash fruits well, wipe with a dry towel
- Proceed to create the first "cake". Put the watermelon on a chopping board, evenly cut the top and bottom. Then put the watermelon upright, and begin to carefully cut the peel so that you get a cylinder. When the watermelon is peeled, horizontally divide it in half. Get two cakes. Put one cake on a plate - this is the basis of our cake.
- The next layer will be pineapple. Remove the top and bottom of the pineapple. Place the pineapple vertically, cut off the peel, giving the edges a rounded shape. When the fruit is peeled, cut the resulting cylinder in half. Put one pineapple cake on top on a watermelon.
- Take the remaining watermelon cake, cut the sides to reduce it in volume, and lay on top of the pineapple.
- Cut the kiwi into layers and, laying out the layers in a circle, decorate the top watermelon layer. Cut the apple into slices to decorate the cakes on the sides. Add halves of grapes to the decoration, placing them between the apples.
Fruits used to decorate the cake can be fixed with toothpicks. You can decorate the cake with any fruit or berries of your choice. Cakes can also be varied - in addition to watermelon and pineapple, you can take melon as a basis, having previously removed the core. The number of cakes can be unlimited, as well as decor. It all depends on your imagination and preferences.
