Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Watermelon
- 4 pieces Kiwi
- 200 grams Strawberries (fresh)
- 250 milliliters Heavy Cream
- 2 tablespoons Powdered Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 2 tablespoons Edible Star Decorations
- 8 pieces Wooden Skewers
Instructions
Cut the watermelon into bite-sized cubes, roughly 2 cm on each side. You will need about 4 cubes per skewer.
Peel the kiwis and cut them into thick slices, then further into smaller quarters. Aim for pieces roughly the same size as the watermelon cubes.
Assemble the skewers by alternating watermelon and kiwi pieces. Place them on a serving platter.
In a food processor or blender, purée the strawberries until smooth.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream with an electric hand mixer until soft peaks form.
Gently fold the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and strawberry purée into the whipped cream until fully combined and fluffy. This is the starry strawberry cream.
Transfer the strawberry cream into a small serving dish and sprinkle the edible star decorations on top for a playful garnish.
Serve the fruit skewers with the strawberry cream dip on the side. Enjoy immediately!
