Watermelon Ship Tutorial

Remember the watermelon ship I had carved a few weeks back..




I had said I will do a tutorial .. I got a little more creative and made a video of all the pictures....

Let's look at what you will need :

• Watermelon 
• Watermelon/fruit scooper
• Sharp knife
• Wooden skewers

• Watch the video.. I have added pictures with step by step instructions.. 
• Use a Watermelon which has a sturdy base and is balanced..
• Cut it in two pieces- one large and one small.. we will be using the smaller to make the boat..
• Make perfect round scoops like ice cream scoops.. Scrap the rest into another bowl..
• Cut the shapes for the sail and paddles from the larger piece. 
• Insert skewer through them.
• Pass the sail's skewer through the boat's skewer to make the sail stand..
• Fix the paddles..
• Fill the boat with watermelon scoops. Arrange them in a way to achieve balance..
• Keep in refrigerator till serving time..

Oh yes I haven't forgotten the remaining watermelon scrapped in another bowl..
Crush it in a mixie to make juice. Add sugar and ice as per needed..

                                                      A perfect cool drink for the summer...
If you try this watermelon carving don't forget to share it with me.. I would love to see how it turned out..!!
