Frozen Watermelon Cubes

Frozen watermelon cubes are prepared by cutting fresh watermelon into uniform chunks and freezing them until solid. The result is a visually appealing, bite-sized treat with a firm, icy texture that bursts with juicy watermelon flavor when bitten into. These cubes serve as a refreshing summer snack or addition to cold desserts.

Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 large Watermelon seedless, ripe

Equipment

  • Sharp Knife
  • Cutting Board
  • Baking Sheet or Freezer-Safe Tray
  • Parchment Paper

Method
 

  1. Place a clean cutting board on a flat surface and cut the watermelon into 1-inch cubes using a sharp knife. Ensure all pieces are roughly uniform for even freezing and appearance.
  2. Line a baking sheet or freezer-safe tray with parchment paper and arrange the watermelon cubes in a single layer, ensuring they aren't touching each other to prevent sticking.
  3. Transfer the tray to the freezer and let the watermelon cubes freeze for at least 4 hours or until completely solid and firm.
  4. Once frozen, remove the tray from the freezer and use a spatula if needed to gently loosen the cubes. Serve immediately for best texture or store in an airtight container in the freezer.
  5. Optional: for variation, you can thread the cubes onto skewers or serve as-is for a refreshing cold snack that captures the pure flavor and juiciness of watermelon.

Notes

For easier handling, partially freeze the watermelon before cutting into uniform cubes. Keep frozen until ready to serve to maintain texture.
