Carrot Stamping

Category: Edible Crafts


Materials:

1 large carrot, Paper cups, Food coloring, Paper plate, Kitchen knife, American cheese

Instructions:

  1. Slice off the end of a carrot to reveal the smooth surface. One variation is to place notches all the way around the edge of the carrot and a small hole in the smooth center to produce a flower design. You may also wish to carve your initial in a raised fashion in the center of the carrot. The raised surface will be what prints. Hint: If you carve an initial, you must make sure the letter is reversed for it to show the correct way after stamping on the American cheese.

  2. Pour a small amount of food coloring (whichever colors you choose) into each paper cup. Dip the carrot into the color and test it on the paper plate. Putting too much ink on your carrot will incur in splotching the edges of the design.

  3. Now you can place your design on slices of American cheese. Enjoy!
