Vegan Sugar Free Salted Chocolate Watermelon
Let’s talk watermelon!
If there is one fruit the captures the essence of summer, it’s watermelon! While you can easily just slice and enjoy, you can completely elevate the experience by dipping the fruit in chocolate. I know what you’re thinking, how does it stick? It sounds like a mess! I promise you, it’s so seamless, so good, and so worth your time!
So why add chocolate to fruit that’s already sweet? You can choose a stevia sweetened chocolate so you’re not even adding white sugar to fruit. The salt? I promise you, it not only enhances the chocolate flavor, but also pulls through the watermelon. It’s a win win all around.

Vegan Salted Chocolate Watermelon
- Total Time: 15 mins
- Yield: Serves 4 - 6 1x
Ingredients
- 1/2 watermelon sliced into triangles
- 1 cup stevia sweetened chocolate chips
- 2 tsps melted coconut oil
- 1 tsp flake salt
Instructions
- The night before, slice watermelon into triangles. Then cover and place in the fridge. (Slice in half, then place cut side down and start making slices. Cut those slices in half, and you have triangles!) By slicing in advance it enables the watermelon to slightly dry out so it’s easier to coat in chocolate.
- Melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil in the microwave for 1 minute, stirring every 15 minutes until fully melted and combined. If the bowl is warm, just keep stirring until the chips melt. Allow the chocolate to cool for a few minutes.
- Remove watermelon from fridge and press it with a paper towel. Dip the triangles in the chocolate coating halfway up the slices and getting the sides. Scrape the backside back into the chocolate bowl. Place on a plate/pan lined with parchment paper. Garnish with flake salt and place in the freezer for 5-10 minutes. Enjoy!
