Moulded shaped sandwiches

The 'Original' tool required is this. Makes a nice square shape sandwich which also removes the crust.
If you do not own the above tool, do not despair, you can still make cool looking moulded sandwich bread.

Tools required

All you need are some various sized shape cookie cutters…..and of course some slices of bread.



Method:

1. From your cookie cutter collection, choose two with the closest shapes, depending on your preference or size of the bread.

2. Place the smaller cookie cutter with the flat surface, face down on one side of the bread.


3. On the other side of the bread, place the larger cookie cutter sharp edge down.


4. Make sure the cookie cutters are aligned between the 2 slices of bread. Don’t forget your filling (unless you don’t want any) – jam/spreads, ham slices, mashed eggs, tuna, etc. can be used.


5. Gently press both cutters together, sealing the edges.


6. Place firmer pressure on the larger cookie cutter and remove the outer part of the unwanted bread.


7. Ta-da…..revealing your moulded shaped sandwich.


Have fun moulding your sandwiches for your bento box!!




^^Updated.
Diana mentioned that you could use the mouth of a plastic container to help shape your bread. I thought it was a fantastic idea and decided to test it out.
Works better if you take off the crust and seal the edges of the white and soft part of the bread. Since Master Prince doesn't mind the crust, didn't want to waste it.
Hm, need to find a smaller plastic container, mine was actually a little too big in size for the bread. Alternatively, need to get a larger loaf of bread.
