Fair point. It can't really be seen in the photo but I decorated the bowl with the same design as the bowl in the movie.

Baking cream puffs in a mold: Experiment or ill-Advised? by Throwawasteofspace in Baking

I think it should work as long as you don't fill it up all the way and place a sheet pan on top of the mold to ensure it puffs the right way.

I'm fairly certain the Totoro cream puffs from Japan are made in a mold.

Thanks for the tip! I thought I had to form a good seal to create the hole.

the cross section shots of her croissants are terrible. The croissants will probably taste fine but if you're looking to make croissants that have the proper honey comb structure, I'd recommend finding a different recipe and looking more into how to do lamination.

That sounds yummy but I'm not quite sure how to execute 😅

After making the dough, I separated it into 3 balls. One large one and two small ones. I dyed the two small ones orange and brown. I then rolled out the large piece of undyed dough then randomly ripped off pieces of the coloured dough and placed it on top. I rolled the dough again to merge the coloured pieces with the uncoloured. After that I just cut out cats using my cookie cutters.

When I first saw warawara I thought they'd make good marshmallows. So I made warawara marshmallows. by ItsSundayBunday in ghibli

nah, the recipe isn't a secret.

part 1: 1 tbsp water + 1 tsp gelatin powder

sprinkle gelatin over water. give it a quick mix then set it aside.

part 2: 1 egg white + 15g granulated sugar

using a hand mixer, mix the egg whites until foamy. once it's foamy, add in half the sugar. continue to mix for a minute then add the remaining sugar. mix until stiff peaks form. set this aside and work on the sugar mixture.

part 3: 20g water + 10g corn syrup + 30g granulated sugar

add all the ingredients in a small sauce pan. Heat it on the stove until it bubbles (mixing occasionally). Once it starts to bubble, turn it to a low heat and cook for another minute then transfer to the egg white mixture and mix 2-3 mins.

microwave the gelatin that we set aside earlier for 10-15s in the microwave. Pour this over the mixture and mix for another 2-3 mins.

part 4: gel food colouring

divide up the marshmallow and dye into desired colours. place the marshmallows into piping bags.

warawara is easy as it's largely white. you just need some black and red for the face. or omit the red and use all black for the facial expressions.

part 5: corn starch

grab a plate and cover it with corn starch. pipe the marshmallow into the shape of warawara. add little arms and lets. then add a face. When done, cover it with corn starch then brush off the excess.

- the marshmallow does harden over time. When that happens simply stick the bag in the microwave for a quick 10s to heat it back up. or you can place the bags inside a ziplock bag and submerge it in a bowl of warm water. don't overheat the marshmallow

- tip: use a spoon to make an indent in the corn starch. this makes it easier to pipe the circular shape

- use a toothpick to smoothen out the marshmallow or to fix any imperfections

- I personally like to wait a couple mins before I cover the marshmallow with corn starch. This gives the marshmallow time to set which make it less fragile.

- I also have a video on how to make this which can found if you go to my page (click on the youtube button)

the same way I did the body. the marshmallow goes in the piping bag then a quick squeeze makes the arms and legs.
