I tried my first watermelon strawberry cake from The Black Star Pastry (Sydney, Australia) at a food festival in Melbourne (Australia). One bite and there is the flavor and texture dance in your mouth. It’s creamy, chewy, crunchy, fresh and very light on your palette .I was so curious to recreate this beauty and luckily the layering was so precise that I knew what I am eating and what way the layering goes. The best part about this dish is that its gluten free.The Strawberry watermelon cake consists of 2 layers of almond dacquoise (like a meringue), 3 layers of rose scented cream, watermelon, and strawberries and garnished with pistachios and dried rose petals.
