Food Decoration

Apple Bird

1.  Cut off 1/3 from the side of an apple to provide a flat base. This section will be used later to make the head and neck.

2.  Place the apple before you cut side down with the stem facing you. Use a light sawing motion to make a small wedge cut at the top. Continue making wedge shaped cuts each a bit larger than the next as shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1.

3.  Spread slices slightly so that contrasting cut surfaces are visible as shown in Figure 2. Brush all cut surfaces with lemon juice. 

Figure 2.

4.  Repeat this on both sides, forming three sets of feathers. If a piece breaks, do not worry, the sections will fit together and the break will not be noticeable.

5.  To form the head and neck cut a slice from the center of the section, set aside in the first step. Cut this slice in the form of the head and neck that you see in Figure 3. Cloves or apple seeds may be used for eyes (Figure 3).

Figure 3.

6.  Insert a toothpick into the body on an angle and attach the head and neck. Prevent darkening by squeezing lemon juice over the entire surface of the apple bird.
