A creative chef known as Nao has found a unique way to turn the timeless Japanese fruit sandwich into a treat embedded with sweet characters. In Nao’s creations, tiny cats and charming dogs made out of oranges, strawberries, and grapes greet you from the whipped cream.
Nao’s culinary artwork not only delights the taste buds but also showcases the incredible versatility of fruit. A horizontal slice of strawberry works great as a flower petal, but doubles wonderfully as corgi ears. A grape cut in half could either be the wings of an owl, or part of a teddy bear’s face. Above all, rounded faces of these fruity companions find a perfect match in orange slices, even allowing for a charming depiction of Winnie the Pooh.
To achieve this, the artist cleverly arranges the fruit within the sandwich, which can be cut diagonally or horizontally. And surprisingly, the food artist works partly blind, as they’ll only get to see how the characters look after the sandwich has been cut. Time after time, the results of these cut fruit sandwiches are a feast for the stomach and the eyes.
To stay up to date with Nao’s cute sandwich art and explore the rest of their creations, you can follow them on Instagram. And I highly suggest you doing that. Because there are tons of adorable foods make you want to but unwilling to eat them.
