# Expert Hints:
01 -
- This is the kind of dessert that disappears instantly at any summer gathering—especially when people get to assemble their own slice.
- You can improvise with whatever fruit or toppings you have, so it always fits your mood and fridge supplies.
02 -
- If the watermelon is too wet, the toppings will slide right off—take the time to blot well.
- Assembling too far ahead makes everything soggy, so build your pizza right before serving for the best texture.
03 -
- Layer the yogurt a little thicker in the center for better topping hold.
- Mint should be added at the very last second so it stays perky and aromatic.
