Apple Penguin

This little penguin is so easy to make.

What you need is....

An Orange
An apple
Few slices of carrot
Few Grapes
A cherry tomato
Few tooth picks


This is how I made him....

First connect the Orange & Apple using a toothpick.

Use a slice of carrot to cut a bow.

Insert the bow to the orange bottom using a tooth pick with a Grape as a button

Insert pieces of grapes as eyes,piece of carrot as beak.

Prepare a carrot slice & a tomato as a hat

I used a stem of a kind of leaves (kan kong) to make a showl for the penguin

Penguin is ready now.....

Isn't he too cute?

Fruit Basket with an Orange

I always like to follow simple food garnishing methods. But now I like to explore new ideas although I am a beginner.

I got this idea of making this fruit basket through a video on YouTube. It is not very neat as I am not very experienced with the knife. Anyway I enjoyed making it.

All what you need is a sharp knife, an orange, A bow or a ribbon, few small fruits ( I used cherry tomato, Blueberry & Grapes)

Cut & remove a part of orange as shown below. For this, first cut horizontally until the centre,& then cut vertically. Then remove that part. Do the same from other side; keep the Centre part as the handle of the basket

Then carefully remove the flesh.

A small basket is ready now.

Cut a zig zag pattern in the border of the basket.

Now basket is ready.

Fill it with some fruits.

Arrange a simple bow in the handle.

Done!!! This is my little cute Orange Fruit Basket….
