Fruit Cake Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: School Lunch Ideas and Recipes. (Fruit Cake Recipe). This cake was a hit with the children and parents at our two-year-old's birthday party. It is perfect for raw, vegan, gluten/wheat-free, refined sugar-free diets (and children who don't need sugar!). This cake was inspired by a 100% watermelon cake we had the year before.

Step 1

To create the base tier of the cake cut 3 slices of watermelon 1 to 2 inches thick crossways through the center of the melon. Trim the rind from the watermelon slices and place the largest slice onto a cake plate. Alternate layering sliced strawberries slices of cantaloupe and slices of fresh pineapple; follow with the second-largest watermelon slice. Repeat once more to make a layered fruit stack that looks like a cake.

Step 2

Thinly slice a few pieces of remaining melon and pineapple. With cookie cutters or a sharp knife cut remaining fruit slices into decorative shapes. Decorate the cake tiers with the cut fruit shapes and remaining berries.

Step 3

Refrigerate until serving time. To serve slice the cake with a sharp knife one wedge at a time and set the wedge onto a plate.
