Cucumber-san's icing cookie art
On her YouTube channel, "Cucumber's Cookies," Cucumber-san shows videos of her creative process.
This one shows how she takes numerous separately-built three-dimensional objects and combines them together in one showcase piece.
You guessed it. It's a picnic, recreated in icing cookies!
If you weren't watching the process from the beginning, you'd think they were miniatures from a dollhouse. You wouldn't think any of them were edible!
In this one, Cucumber-san puts her skills to use to create a bento lunchbox that looks just like the real thing but in miniature size! See for yourself:
It's a small but delicious-looking bento lunch.
The finished product is so small that your fingers would like like a giant when you tried picking it up!
Complete with rice and a pickled plum, a tasty-looking grilled salmon, a shiso leaf, sausages with diagonal decorative cuts, little omelet rolls, cherry tomatoes and salad, it looks so tempting. Even the box is carefully crafted and looks just like a bento box. It's hard to believe everything is made of cookies!
