Ingredients

  • 1 Hovis® Wholemeal Good Inside®* Sandwich Thin
  • 1 cheddar cheese slice or filling of your choice
  • ½ carrot
  • small piece of cucumber
  • edible icing eyes

Instructions

  • First split and fill your Sandwich Thin with a filling of your choice. I buttered mine and added a slice of cheddar cheese to fill it. Sandwich meats such as ham or roast beef would also work well for a neat and tidy sandwich!
  • Next, cut off the corners as shown in the video below to shape the Sandwich Thin.
  • Peel the carrot, including around the rounded end. Cut off a decent sized chunk, then slice it to get the two ears (see the video below if you're not sure how to best slice it)
  • Trim to two carrot ears at an angle then pop them onto the Sandwich Thin.
  • Next take a cucumber and cut off a slice about 2.5cm thick. Slice off a piece of the skin and using a small sharp knife, cut out a small triangle to form the nose. Cut off a second piece of cucumber skin, then use a mini circle cutter to cut out two thin cresents.
  • Add the cucucmber shapes to the sandwich to form the nose and the mouth (see photo above or video below for placement)
  • Finish the sandwich with a couple of edible icing eyes.

Notes

NOTES: if you don't have any, small circles of cheese or even a couple of blueberries would also work well for the eyes. If you are feeling really creative, you can also make your own icing eyes for use in all sorts of fun food projects!
