Finally! A Mermaid!

October 25, 2012

Cora has been asking for a mermaid lunch for quite awhile. So, far, I’ve gotten away with a variety of under the sea themed lunches, but I really wanted to honor her request without resorting to one of the sexy mermaid cutters I saw everywhere. I spent a little time studying different cartoon mermaids (no, NOT Disney) and came up with a design I could feel good about. So, Cora finally got her mermaid lunch!

Mermaid Lunch

I made our girl using a shark cookie cutter. I cut off the fins and the head, and used a small circle cutter to make her head. Her hair is made from organic, dye-free cheese curls

To make this lunch I used:

 
Decorative Bento Cutter Ham Cheese Cutter Set 18 Shapes
Decorative Bento Cutter Ham Cheese Cutter Set 15 Facial Expression
Japanese Bento Decoration Ham Cheese Cutter Set 9pcs Sea

    Super Cute Lise!! Love that you used a shark cookie cutter for her body! It actually looks WAY better than any of the mermaid cookie cutters!
