My daughter watches this show almost every single day, so I feel like I owe it to her to make this. It took a looooong time to do it though because I couldn't find anything white to use for the white part of the eye. Oh and I wish the black food marker had not turned greenish on the cheese. Boo-hoo.

George's head is made of:
- A piece of bread cut into shape with the help of a template.
- Cheese slice for the face, ears and eyes.
- The rest of the head is dabbed with some chocolate sauce.
- A black food marker to outline the upper part of the eyes and the face and ears, as well as to color the black part of the eyes.
- A tiny piece of fondant rolled into two tiny balls for the sparkle in the eyes.
- Nori a.k.a. seaweed cut into a smiley mouth and a nose.

Bah. I think blogger ate my comment. THIS is amazing! I know the cheese (and I have trouble with black turning green or brown, too ... more brown with the natural colors) ... is the rest of George's face a burger? Seriously too cute and I'm SO going to have to put it on Pinterest and share it with my other bento mom friends :)
ReplyDeleteYou know, if you're on Facebook there's a private ultra cool group of bento friends I think you might enjoy! I believe after you click on the link it will give you the e-mail address from the group admin -- you'll have to drop her a line to say hi but I'll tell her to approve you because you're amazing :) http://www.facebook.com/groups/bentobloggers/
ReplyDeleteKaren, I had to read your comments like 6 times, and my eyes were tearing up LOL! Being the newbie, I feel so honored :D This was her breakfast, it was just a piece of bread with some honey under the cheese. Thank you for introducing me to the Facebook group (of course I'm on Facebook, who isn't?! LOL) Will e-mail her soon, exciting! It is because of yours and others' bentos and fun food I've seen so many on Google, that made me tried it too :D
DeleteHi Karen, there is no link to the group from here, and I tried to search for it on Facebook but to no avail :(
DeleteThat's odd. Maybe the settings changed when we went to being a "secret" group. Ummmm .... here's the snip from what I THOUGHT you would see:
