The charming characters and worlds created by beloved animation Studio Ghibli seem like they would almost perfectly translate into the world of sweets, and @chiii_ida06 recently proved just that with an adorable labor of love.
@chiii_ida06 shared two photos on Twitter of her Valentine's Day gift to her husband, an avid Studio Ghibli fan, that have charmed the internet not only as a loving a gesture, but with how adorably and detailed she crafted it. For the special day, chiii_ida06 prepared for a month to create a lavish box of Studio Ghibli-inspired cookies that recreate characters from Spirited Away and My Neighbor Totoro!

"I've been working really hard on this for a while now and and even if it's just a few I'd like to show it to a lot of people?. I've been thinking a lot about this for a whole month, buying a lot of materials and tools, and been preparing a lot, and the day is finally here? I hope my husband, who loves Ghibli, will be happy with it ?."
The level of detail in crafting the cookies is absolutely outstanding, a Valentine's gift that would make any Ghibli fan squeal with glee. Totoro (big and small), black soot sprites, and No Face are all present in the lovely cookie celebration of some of Hayao Miyazaki's most popular creations. Flavors include matcha, coacoa, cream cheese, and white chocolate and berry ganache macarons as just some of the expertly crafted flavors.
In her dedicated making of the batch of sweets, chiii_ida06 says she studied the Totoro cookies made by M. Okazaki and watched hours of sweets and cooking YouTube channel NekonoME Cafe. Perhaps some of her passion for sweets comes from her job as a barista.
As for the result, @chiii_ida06 shared a video of presenting to her husband, who was floored by the quality and loved them, although perhaps thought they were just too cute too eat!
