We are at it again, its another blog hop and I am having so much fun with the Star Wars theme!
Princess Leia is a cheese sandwich (big surprise!) with almond butter sandwich buns on the side. I’m kinda regretting the jelly
rosy cheeks’. Maybe pink soy paper circles would have worked better…
The Ewok is a cucumber bear with soy paper hood. He is resting on a bed of hummus, standing on a carrot log and holding a pretzel spear.
Our light sabers are pretzel sticks dipped into a mixture of cream cheese, coconut oil (to keep it from cracking as it dries) and a touch of vanilla syrup. I made a lot of ‘mistakes’ on this one because it was sooooo yummy! The colors are from using natural food colors. I tried for a blue using cabbage water and baking soda but the color wasn’t concentrated enough so it ended up too soupy.
For a little extra fun, I decorated the PlanetBox with stickers and included two Lego Ewoks
