For Children's Day Flying Carp Rolled Sandwiches
- 3 slice Sliced sandwich bread
- 1 brown and pink Chocolate decorating pen
- 6 M&Ms, or other chocolate candies (optional)
- 1 Your favorite sandwich fillings
- Cut the crusts off the bread slices.
- Prepare the fillings.
- I decided to make fruit and whipped cream filled rolled sandwiches.
- Put a sheet of plastic wrap on your work surface, and place a slice of bread on top.
- Add the fillings, and roll up the bread.
- Use the plastic wrap to roll it up from the side closest to you.
- Leave the roll with the end edge on the bottom for a while until the roll settles.
- In the meantime, soften the filling of the decoration pens so that it's runny enough to squeeze out.
- Cut the rolled sandwiches in half.
- Use the long fruit picks (or cocktail snack picks) sold in 100 yen shops to secure two rolled sandwiches pieces together.
- Add the chocolate candies as eyes.
- (If you dab a little chocolate from the pen on the back of the candies, they'll stay in place better.)
- Draw the fish scales on with the pens, and the sandwiches are done.
