I love this dessert for summer get togethers. Everyone likes ice cream cake and this Watermelon Bombe by Martha Stewart puts a fun yet sophisticated twist on a childhood classic. I've made it a few times for various get togethers and most recently for a BBQ with friends. I couldn't find any watermelon sorbet so I used raspberry instead - it was tasty.
It's easy enough but can take a bit of time to let all the layers freeze independently. Martha would probably be appalled. but I was in a rush so I just bought pre-made angel food cake from the store instead of making sponge cake. This time I used gelatto for one of the layers which I would NOT recommend - it was a bit too soft. Lastly, sit this one out if you don't have a heavy duty hand mixer...you'll end up with a huge mess on your hands.
