Death Star Watermelons

You were told as a child to never play with your food but, to be frank, sometimes when a cool idea suddenly hits, the temptation is just too strong.  So, you take a watermelon. You just can't help noticing that it already kinda looks like the Death Star. It doesn't look quite right on a plate, though.  Time to experiment.


OK, perhaps the background needs changing.  Yes, we are definitely getting somewhere now.  Just a matter of getting the angle and the light correct and....


...and there you have it.  Hanging mysteriously in space, the scourge of the known universe - the Watermelon Death Star.  Of course if you are handy with a pen knife and have a little time to kill, you can always go for an alternative but just as fruity a vision.

No barbecue should be without one, in our opinion!

    Really fun! But isn't the first one technically a cantaloupe?

    The first one is technically a musk melon, what everyone in America refers to as "cantaloupe".
