March of the Penguin Appetizers

My sister P adores penguins and the kitchen. What better way to marry these two loves of hers by preparing this appetizer? She served this during one of our family gatherings. Aren’t they the cutest? She was inspired by a recipe she read from the net. Who could’ve thought that pitted black olives, cream cheese and carrots would make for cute little penguins. The funny thing is nobody wanted to touch the appetizers! We were ooh-ing and aah-ing at her labor of love. I was the first one to dig into the little penguins and they were delicious! More penguin pictures after the jump.

Such a flare for creativity. I simply love details like this in parties. It’s a sign of a hostess who loves to please her guests by adding personal touches to food. Very admirable!
The penguins are sooo cute but although it seems a shame to eat it, I wouldn’t want to miss tasting it. I’m sure it tasted as great as it looked. Thanks for sharing.

Hahaha, your sister is too creative. Although they’re cute, I’d feel so guilty eating them after all the hard work she’s put into each one!

Hi there
I just came accross your blog thanks to stumbleupon and I am loving the food pics that you have, they are all so bright and full of colour. I started off as a blogger myself a year ago and loved talking to other food bloggers around the world so much that I wanted to find a way of more people sharing photos and meeting other foodies. I used to get annoyed that I would be making so many great recipe videos and food photos and hardly anybody would see them! That is when I came up with http://www.ifoods.tv which is a new site for foodies all around the world to share food photos, recipes and videos as well as meeting other foodies. We are only starting off and are currently a small community but I would love to see you there sharing some of your amazing photos with other foodies! Keep up the good work on the blog and hope to talk soon.
Cheers!
