Cut 12 rounds, each around 1 cm thick, from the cucumber.

Using a mini round cutter, cut circles from the cucumber slices to form the bases of your snowmen.

Push a cocktail stick into the top of a cucumber slice so that it is standing vertically.

Carefully push two mozzarella pearls onto the cocktail stick to make the snowman body and head.

Cut the carrot slices into tiny triangle wedges for the snowman noses.

Push a carrot nose into the head piece of the snowman.

Add black sesame seed eyes and buttons to the snowman, pressing them gently to the mozzarella pearl to stick them in place (you might find this easier to do with tweezers if you have them).

Stand the snowman on a plate or platter and repeat until you have made as many snowmen as you need.

Serve immediately and enjoy!
