Today’s post is in response to Jenna’s question about the Shaun the Sheep sandwich bento that I previously made. Jenna wanted to know if there was something else that she could use besides nori for Shaun. A situation like this is the perfect opportunity for making/using a stencil! Just print out a picture of Shaun and cut out the black portion of his head and ears.

Place your stencil against the bread and fill in using black colored sugar, cocoa powder, or black Wilton’s Color Mist. Finish with sugar eyes and cheese.
I used black Color Mist and cocoa powder in this picture.
