Ingredients

  • Fresh blueberries
  • 1 Whole Watermelon
  • A star-shaped cookie cutter I used
  • Wooden Skewers I used 9.75" but you could use 6″ skewers as well.

Instructions

  • Cut the watermelon into thick round slices. You will want the slices' thickness to match your cookie cutter's depth. If your cookie cutter is 1", slice it into 1" pieces.
  • Lay each slice flat on a cutting board. Use the star cookie cutter to cut stars from the watermelon slices. You can usually get several from each piece depending on your star's size.
  • Assemble the fruit star sparklers by first adding 3 blueberries and then the watermelon star. Continue until you reach the top and end with the watermelon star. I ended up with 3 stars on each skewer.
  • Place the fruit sparklers on a serving tray. Cover and refrigerate until ready to enjoy.
