Instructions

  1. Begin by washing and hulling the strawberries, ensuring they are clean and ready to enjoy.
  2. Carefully cut the cantaloupe in half, removing the seeds to prepare the fruit for scooping.
  3. Using a melon baller, scoop out the pulp to create beautiful melon balls, setting them aside as you work.
  4. Reserve the emptied cantaloupe shells for a charming presentation.
  5. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cantaloupe balls and hulled strawberries, tossing gently to mix.
  6. Add half a cup of sugar and the dry Marsala wine to the bowl, stirring until the fruits are well-coated and the sugar begins to dissolve.
  7. Cover the bowl and refrigerate the mixture for several hours, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
  8. While the fruit is chilling, sprinkle the remaining sugar into the cantaloupe shells and refrigerate them to keep them cool.
  9. Once the marinating time is complete, fill each cantaloupe shell with the marinated melon and strawberries, using a spoon to scoop the juicy mixture in.
  10. For an extra touch, spoon some of the fruit juice over the filled cantaloupe shells before serving.
  11. Serve chilled and enjoy this delightful, easy-to-make dessert that’s sure to impress your guests.
