Icing Eyes - I had trouble finding these here in the UK, but I finally got around to making my own recently, and it was far easier than I expected! For my easy DIY icing eyes tutorial, see the original blog post here. For details of my eyeball soup below see the original blog post here, and for the eyeball pasta see my original blog post here.ĥ. Add to savoury dishes such as soup or pasta or serve up in a bowl along with cherry tomatoes to make an instant and gory caprese salad for a Halloween party.

I made this one for last Halloween, turning it into an eyeball by cutting it into a circle, adding a carrot disk dotted with a black edible marker pen and drawing on the 'veins' with a red edible marker pen. Eyeball Quesadilla - Quesadillas are really easy to make and a great way of using up scraps of food left over from making bento lunches. I had used leftover basmati rice rather than sticky rice so they were a little crumbly!ģ. For the eyeball themed snack below, I served my rice eyeballs up in mini silicone cups to make them slightly easier to eat. To turn your rice ball into an eyeball, cut a disk from cheese, colour with food colouring and draw on a pupil using black food colouring or an edible marker pen. (This is a very similar technique to the one used for sandwich balls, see this blog post for my sandwich ball tutorial). Simply place a spoonful of sticky rice in the centre of a piece of clingfilm, gather up all the edges and twist until the clingfilm is tight and the rice has formed into a firm ball. Rice (Eye)balls - Shaped rice is a staple food in traditional Japanese bento boxes, and a simple ball of rice is one of the easiest shapes to achieve, with no special equipment needed. For full details and a tutorial see my original blog post here.Ģ.

Eyeball Sandwich Balls - Children love a bit of gory fun, and you can't get much more gory than eyeballs for lunch! Make up a bigger batch for a fun new way of presenting sandwiches for Halloween party food, or just serve some up as snack.

Over the last few weeks I have posted several new edible eyeball ideas here on the Eats Amazing blog - as I said before, I started brainstorming and couldn't stop! In today's post I'm going to gather them all up in one place, and add a few final eye themed food ideas for good measure.ġ. Eyes in unexpected places are funny, they just are! At this time of year eyes or eyeballs can also add a creepy element to Halloween food. I am of the belief that that if you want to do one simple thing to make food fun and to make the recipient smile, that one thing is to add eyes.
