The follow up to Face Food by Christopher D Salyers is out and this time Face Food Recipes will teach you how to create your own adorable bento boxes.
Featuring food in the shapes of comic book heros, anime & cartoon characters and cute animals, Face Food will transform any boring lunch box in to a piece of art. Turn eggs, ham and nori in to Mice Rice, ham in to Astro Boy, eggs in to Pokemon, fish cakes in to Spiderman, veggies in to a hungry caterpillar and rice with curry in to Honeybees.
These dishes are almost too cute to eat but if you want to spice up lunchtime or cheer up someone's day, this book will show you how.
