Football Watermelon Carving

A fun watermelon carving made at weekends.  A soccer ball (or a football) in a watermelon was my dream over years. Some times ago I tryed this idea in apple and failed. That time I got confused with the cells and broken the design. 

If you are going to carve a football watwermelon one day mind the fiollowing tips:

• watermelon shape to be ideally round
• a football consists of 32 cells. 12 black cells and 20 white cells.
• black cells are pentagans, white cells are hexagons.

Edible prize. This could be a sport theme fruit arrangement

I couldn't resist making a few photos with the football/soccer watermelon. Posing with it was enjoyable :)


I sent the Football Watermelon to the Watermelon Carving Contest 2012 (vote here).
