Japanese Kakigori A Heatwave Remedy

yumI AM AComment

Cooling desserts are a must. A dessert that is cute, fruity, colourful, refreshing, and cooling at the same time, our top picks will come from the Japanese dessert of Kakigori かき氷, or a slush puppy.

A dessert commonly found in Japan that we love it so much we even have a card on it.  As we should all meet for Kakigori, as it's a wonderful experience to see ice beautifully shaved from the ice machine and topped with all sorts of yummy toppings.

For instant chilling effect, use the hashtag #かき氷 for more Kakigori finds on Pinterest. Let's take this chill pill and chillax.

Perfect Sandwich Ratios

yum, just sayingI AM AComment

This is kinda big cheese. It's British Sandwich Week, from the 20th to 26th May 2018, a week dedicated to celebrate bread with fillings. In the UK, we consume around 3,500,000,000 sandwiches a year. So how do we construct a perfect sandwich?

Thanks to the cheese makers, West Country Farmhouse Cheesemakers, that makes PDO (protected designation of origin) status cheddar cheeses have constructed a "Sandwich Computer" which they have called "The Sarniematic & Cheddar-O-Meter", that will give you the perfect formula and ratio, the ratio apparently called the "Sarnie Strata Ratio" to make the perfect sandwich.

We love the little quirks and puns that come with the Sandwich robot, especially when it asks whether you would like to have any lettuce with your sandwich. If it's a no, they have termed it "Leaf it out". If you have pickle and mayonnaise together on your sarnie, you will be given a "Cross Dressing Alert"! Tee hee hee. We like the humour.

The Best Thing Since Sliced Bread

yumI AM AComment

Who loves toast? Especially when toast is combined with a topping of kawaii art? That is us. Foodie Nayoko Kobayashi from the Japanese prefecture of Kanagawa combines the cutest icons, from emojis, rainbows, beer glasses, mushrooms, flowers to minions and decorate the humble white sliced toast bread with a background of cream cheese and colourful glossy application of jam. 

Here's some of our favourites of Nayoko's creations which can be found via Instagram account @Nayoko054 including watermelon, sushi, doughnuts, burger, milkshake and really cute fruits - check that 3D grape effect!

Food for thought : probably a British version of toast bread art could be with scones, clotted cream and jam?

Cake, cake and more cake. Especially when they are these super cute knitted, crochet, beaded cake delights, one more slice please.
