I made this cake . It came out beautiful, followed all your steps but waited to put the watermelon couple of hours before eating, and follow other steps to complete. . The Almond Dacquoise was made the night before. Water melon left for Maceration for longer ( at least an hour ).
Thank you for sharing this stunning dessert recipe. Just finished one from Black Star Pastry Sydney.. absolutely divine and not overly sweet at all. I’ll definitely give this a go!!
🍉🍓 I made this for my kids! They tore it up! I devoured the rest at 3 a.m. This cake made me sleep walk! The cake made me do it 😅 ❣️🍉 Thank you sooo much the interesting cake combination is pure tastebud genius! Plus I love ❣️strawberries 🍓 and watermelon 🍉 sooo much 🍓🍉❣️ The glaze, rose cream and pistachios gave it such a divine kick! 🦵🏾🦶🏾 🍓🍉 I was so depressed and taking the time out in solitude listening to Billie Holiday. Flowers sirrounding me and full scented vegan homemade candles 🕯️ burning. Was the solution. Nothing has motivated me in over a year. So when I watched your video and became lost in the aesthetic of your craft. I felt myself starting to feel the motivation. That I thought was gone forever. Start to rise 🌹 I took full advantage and went full speed ahead! Your voice was plaiying in my home for hours! When I took my first bite. My tastebuds exploded and the dopamine was activated for such a long time. That I escaped the dark whirlpool 🌀 of hopelessness that had consumed me for far to long. It feels so good to back. I’m different now as I should be. After through such a long uncomfortable state of being. No one comes out the same. I would have never guessed a cake making ritual. Presented by the right person. That just so happened to resonate with my healing needs. Would be the kick start that my spirit needed. To return to the obstacle of life. Wuth a vengeance. Thank you for improving the quality of my life.❣️ I am so thankful your video was in my vieo suggestions and you selflessly sharing with the world 🌍
You made my fave cake 😍 Thank you for sharing! 💕 To my surprise i have all the ingredients in the kitchen (thx mommy) & now i can make this and share with my family 😋 There is a cafe shop around my area that sell this cake and it is a bit pricey. I have not went there since the pandemic. But after watching your video and watch the steps on making this cake. I think i may…be can do this with the help and guide from my mother 🥺😅😍
This is a very good set of instruction and you make it look so easy. The result is a cake that looks exactly like the Black Star original I could probably make it the day before but leave the strawberries and pistachios off until the next day? As long as the watermelon holds up between the cream…. I wonder. Or just make the dacquiose layers at least
I made this cake and it was amazing! Super hit. Only issue was I couldn’t get it as beautiful as yours so I’m going to have to purchase the items you used!
I love black star pastry watermelon cake but it is too pricey so I decided to make my own. I made this cake using this vid 1 month ago and omg it taste exactly the same! Thank you so much I love this cake so much.
Hello, Mai! I have a question. Will the rose-scented cream melt? Do I need to refrigerate it before eating? Or freezer maybe? Thank you so much! Loved watching your tutorial! 🍓🍉
This looks amazing and delicious yummmm I will definitely have to try it one day. Out of curiosity, the cake layer, feels like an actual cake or a biscuit?
Thanks Sara! Definitely try it out. The cake layers are quite soft as they would have absorbed some of the moisture, it feels like an almond sponge rather than a biscuit :)
Hi, I have a convection fan oven so yes, as for the gelatine, you can skip it but from my experience it wouldn’t hold shape and turn out as pretty, taste is the same
I'm hoping to surprise my wife with this for her birthday, thank you for sharing. If I make this about a day ahead and keep it in the fridge is it likely to dry out/get too soggy?
I want to make but I haven’t got bake yet. I watch recipes really nice. But I don’t know how much you in recipes. If not mind can you give for me ? Thanks
Hey! You don’t *need* to have a mould, I’ve made this in a standard round cake tin with a removable base (cut it into a square shape if you’d like) - or just stack the layers then cut the edges. The mould just makes it a bit neater and easier 👌🏻
I got them at the supermarket in the baking section, it’s quite popular in Mediterranean cooking so look in spice sections, or Middle Eastern shops too. Alternatively, amazon 😅
Thank you, I'll make sure to do that next time I bake this. Also I baked this cake, it turned out really good, just like black star pastry. Thanks for sharing this recipe 😃
Haha that's not the point - they've also shared a version of their recipe online themselves. I doubt their demand would ever be spoiled by some home cook trying to recreate one of their cakes 😄
That's such a dumb statement you made there. People always try to replicate their favourite dish/dishes. Doesn't mean they're trying to put a business out of business. Haven't you heard of the saying "Imitation is the highest form of flattery"?
Seriously you must know nothing about food. Every chef gives out their recipes from Bill Granger to Shannon Bennett. They even put their recipes in cook books! What cruel jab!
List of ingredients and special tools used are in the description box! ⭐️
TY 💚🙌
I tried this and its really nice. The combination of strawberry, watermelon, pistachios, the cream is just Walla!!!
Tq for the recepi and tutorial ❤️
Did you make it the day you served it?

Hi Mani, so glad to hear!! It did take me a couple of tries, hope you master it ☺
I love black star pastry watermelon cake but it is too pricey so I decided to make my own.
I made this cake using this vid 1 month ago and omg it taste exactly the same! Thank you so much I love this cake so much.
Amazing!! Glad to hear that 😃
I tried the rose flavor in my cake Mai!!! Thank you so much for the idea... It was just awesome...
So glad to hear you enjoyed it! 🤗
Thank you so much! 😍
Hello, Mai! I have a question. Will the rose-scented cream melt? Do I need to refrigerate it before eating? Or freezer maybe? Thank you so much! Loved watching your tutorial! 🍓🍉
I wouldn’t freeze it, the gelatine should help stabilize the cream, but do keep it in the fridge for a bit before eating :)
Magnifique, Bravo Mai... ça donne vraiment envie 😍😍😍
Merci Conceptia!
Thank you for this. The cake looks great btw
Amazing! I will absolutely be making one of these... Thank You and Happy New Year!
This looks so yummy! I will try to make it. Amazing quality video as well 🥰

Thank you!! 😊

thank you! hope it turns out great :)
used your recipe today, yum!
So glad to hear that ☺️❤️
Beautiful
For the daquoise can we replace the sugar with date paste ? Does extra moisture in the daquoise make a difference ?
Hi, thank you for the video, love this cake, may I know what size cake ring did you use for this cake?
This looks amazing and delicious yummmm I will definitely have to try it one day. Out of curiosity, the cake layer, feels like an actual cake or a biscuit?
Thanks Sara! Definitely try it out. The cake layers are quite soft as they would have absorbed some of the moisture, it feels like an almond sponge rather than a biscuit :)
I dont have a square ring but only have a round one. Could you let me know the size of a round cake ring for this recipe. Thank you
Wow superb 👌👌☺️
Look very yummy 😋😋👌☺️
Hi, may I know what is the size of the mousse ring you use please? 7'' or 8''??
Hi, the one i used was 18x18x5cm
Hi, I have tried this recipe but the watermelon is still producing water even after macerating. Please help to advise. Thank you!!!
Niceeee!! My favorite xD
This looks awesome.. Do you need to put the cake in the fridge to firm it up before adding the fruits on top?
Nope! I put it in the fridge after :)
Yummm!!
Beautiful. Tqvm for sharing the recipe ❤️❤️❤️
thank you ❤️
I don’t know if you will reply to this, but my almond base tasted really eggy, how do I fix that
Hi. How do i adjust ingredients for 6 inch round pan?
What size do you use for the baking ring?
Hey! I used a 18x18x5cm ring 🙂
Hello Mai, can I please ask whether the oven was set on fan-forced setting? And can the gelatin in the cream be skipped? Thank you
Hi, I have a convection fan oven so yes, as for the gelatine, you can skip it but from my experience it wouldn’t hold shape and turn out as pretty, taste is the same
@@mai thank you ❤️
This looks wonderful!! I plan on making it for my sister's birthday ✨ Is it okay to make this the night before and keep it in the fridge?
Yes of course 👌🏻
@@mai Yay thank you!!!
Love love loveeee this
❤️❤️
I'm hoping to surprise my wife with this for her birthday, thank you for sharing. If I make this about a day ahead and keep it in the fridge is it likely to dry out/get too soggy?
Next day would be fine, it won't dry out and would allow the cream to set actually :)
@@mai thank you for getting back to me!
Hi, Can I have the full list of ingredients.? Thank you
I want to make but I haven’t got bake yet. I watch recipes really nice. But I don’t know how much you in recipes. If not mind can you give for me ? Thanks
Is it necessary to add gelatine? Can we add simple rose water to the cream?
You can omit gelatine if you want. It’s used to help the cream stay firmer and have a better shape, would not impact the taste
@@mai Thank you so much for the prompt reply.🙏👍
Hello great recipe,
just wondering what to do if you do not have a mould?
Also where do you buy the dried rose petals?
Hey! You don’t *need* to have a mould, I’ve made this in a standard round cake tin with a removable base (cut it into a square shape if you’d like) - or just stack the layers then cut the edges. The mould just makes it a bit neater and easier 👌🏻

Thank you, I'll make sure to do that next time I bake this. Also I baked this cake, it turned out really good, just like black star pastry. Thanks for sharing this recipe 😃
Ah so glad to hear! Thanks for letting me know 😃
May i know this cake can keep how many days?
Best consumed same day because of the fresh fruits. I would say 2 day at max
Where is the husk??
What husk?
What about the jelly layer?
As in the shiny top glaze?
@@mai The one in Sydney has a final layer of strawberry jelly, but it is basically the same job
@@inferno_il7963 blackstar original watermelon cake is exactly the same as this one. There is no jelly layer
@@honeylishuss yes there is…
...OK but where's the gelatin Trisha?
OK not sure what you're asking, but the gelatin is mixed in with the cream?
Why would you give out Black Star’s signature cake and spoil their business??
Haha that's not the point - they've also shared a version of their recipe online themselves. I doubt their demand would ever be spoiled by some home cook trying to recreate one of their cakes 😄
That's such a dumb statement you made there.

The Watermelon cake looks bloody hideos, you cant eat this. Rose petals raw pidtachio nuts,bloody awful.YUCK, YUCK
You can't say anything without trying it first. I have made it and it taste absolutely wonderful
If you don’t like it keep it to yourself, you obviously have no good taste
Unfortunately I think you are displaying a naive parochial view. Black Star has sold millions of these delicious cakes.
