I have always wanted to make themed biscuits and sandwiches for breakfast at weekend, birthdays, anniversaries, festivals and special occasions. Here's a link for easy 'I love you' or 'sorry' breakfast.
Write a message; make them laugh. For breakfast, the I is a vertical (lying flat on the plate) sausage.
The love is a heart shape fried egg, made in a hart shape mould - but you could cut out the white into a heart shape. Or put the egg on a piece of toast made into a heart shape drawn freehand.
Finally the You is cheese on toast, the cheese cut into a thick U shape. You can make a sandwich and use the You on top and the cut out part as the filling so as not to waste it.
Some ideas for shapes and colours:
Shapes for scenery, faces, animals
Circles for faces, bodies, eyes, cheeks:
In sizes from large to small, halves or slices: grapefruit halves, oranges, lemons, apples, pears, tomatoes, cucumbers, olives.
Ring shapes - sliced peppers, red, orange, yellow, green, strawberry.
Lines: carrot, cucumber, celery.
Dots for eyes: currants, sultanas, cherries, chocolate buttons, Smarties.
Trees, fur or curly tails: parsley, coriander, curved strips of vegetables or fruit.
Whiskers: chives, outside of cucumber
Cubes; white sugar, brown sugar, feta cheese cubes, cheddar cheese cubes
Hair spagetti
Envelope - ravioli
Sand - sugar, muesli
Colours:
Transparent: water, vodka, gelatine, lychee
White - almonds, milk, yogurt, bread, cake, chocolate, icing sugar, cream cheese, onion, beans, meringue, rice, barley, spagetti, whipped cream, clotted cream, lychee, feta cheese
Red: apple, cherry, raspberry, strawberry, tomato, pepper, jam, redcurrants, cranberries, jelly
Orange: oranges, mandarins, apricots, marmalade, mango, cheese
Yellow/cream: cake, honey, cheese, yellow pepper, peaches, banana, cashew nuts, pear.
Brown: biscuit, brown bread, coffee, hot chocolate, crust of bread, chocolate alb, nob or grated, roasted almonds, walnuts, chutney, soup.
Brown Logs - chocolate flakes
Green grass or trees: lettuce, gooseberries, greengages, watercress, avocado, soup, kiwi fruit, grape
Purple - aubergine, beetroot, grape
Lavendar - sugared almonds
Blue sky or sea, yogurt or blancmange dyed with blueberries
Black Pepper, peppercorns, marmite, treacle, licorice, soy sauce
Many others, especially animals such as pandas and bears and rabbits with the help of moulds.
