They say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so why not spice things up with some adorable Hello Kitty toast by the 'Kotaku' blog?
Toast art has been around for quite some time now, but has made a comeback after a North American resurgence of interest in Japanese culture. Instead of running out and buying an expensive fancy toaster, you can actually make the designs yourself. The secret is tin-foil; simply cut out the shapes you want and place them on the pieces of toast, and then pop it in the toaster oven.
This easy-to-do project is ideal for the artistic folks who love to play with their food. You can create famous characters such as Hello Kitty or Pokemon, or you can let your imagination run wild. Not to mention that this would be a great idea to use if you have kids that are fussy eaters, as it is visually appealing.
