Cut off both ends of the watermelon to create a flat top and bottom. Stand the watermelon upright and carefully slice off the rind using a sharp knife, shaping it into a smooth, round cake-like cylinder.
Pat the watermelon cylinder dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This helps the whipped cream adhere better.
In a chilled mixing bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat with a hand mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form.
Using a spatula, spread the whipped cream evenly over the entire surface of the watermelon, covering it completely like frosting on a cake.
Wash and prepare the fruits: slice the strawberries, peel and slice the kiwi, and keep the blueberries whole. Arrange the fruits on top and along the sides of the cake in a decorative pattern.
Press the slivered almonds gently into the sides of the cake for added texture and garnish with fresh mint leaves, if desired.
Chill the watermelon cake in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow it to set.
Slice and serve immediately. Enjoy this guilt-free, hydrating dessert!
