Add the cantaloupe and chicken stock to the pot and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 10 minutes, or until the melon is tender enough to fall apart easily when you prod it with a spoon.
Season with just a pinch of salt and pepper at this stage.
The soup can be served warm or chilled for several hours until cold.
Just before serving, thinly slice and chop the ham into small pieces. Fry these ham bits over medium-high heat until they're browned and crispy.
