Steps

1

Mix the plain rice with the ● ingredient and form into the shape of the ears and head while the rice is covered in plastic wrap.
2

Make the shape of the face using a small amount of white rice and add to the shape in Step 1.
3

(Mouth & Eyes) Make the mouth and eyes from the nori seaweed using a punch. There is no mouth in the top picture but form the mouth however you like!
4

(Flower) Place two slices of cheese on top of each other and cut into the shape of a flower. Remove a piece of cheddar cheese with a straw and insert into the flower shape. If you have a flower shaped cutter, you could also use this.
5

(Nose) Squash the straw a little and make the end into the shape of an oval. Remove another piece of cheddar cheese with the straw.
