With just a small bit of ingenuity, turn everyday food into something cute using Kaori’s recipe series! With a few simple ideas, an ordinary recipe magically transforms into a cute dish.
Today, we’ll be making “Marron Rilakkuma-chan no Maccha Mousse”
１：Maccha mousse ingredients
Cream / 100cc
Granulated sugar / 4 tablespoons
Maccha / 2 tablespoons
Gelatin / 5g (soak in 2 tablespoons of water)
☆2 containers (this time, I bought two 7.5×4.5 size containers at Daiso).
2: Topping ingredients
☆Moderate amount
Bean paste (melt it with a little bit of hot water if it’s too hard)
Cream
Boiled marron
Strawberries
Chocolate pen
Maccha to sprinkle on the dairy cream
3: Mix the maccha and granulated sugar (2 table spoons) and add hot water (100cc). Mix these ingredients together.
☆Preparation
Boil water (50cc). Then, put the soaked gelatin inside the container and mix it well.
4: Whip the cream and add the granulated sugar in small batches. Mix it until the cream becomes fairly hard.
5: Add the maccha liquid which you made in Step 3 little by little to the whipped cream you made in Step 4 and mix it well. Also, add the gelatin you made in Step 3 and mix it together well. Please note that you must add the gelatin little by little since the gelatin and the liquid will separate if you add the gelatin all at once.
6: Set the bowl of Step 5 into a larger bowl with ice inside and mix it until it gets slurry.
7: Pour the mixture into the cups you have prepared and leave it for 2 hours or for one night so that it becomes hard.
8: Cut the boiled marron in half, vertically. The cut surface will become the face.
Using the other half of the marron, cut out two circles to use as the ears. Using a fried pasta attach the ears to the head.
Use the chocolate pen to draw the white part of the mouth, yellow part of the ears, eyes and nose. It is recommended that you use the pointed side of a toothpick to draw the mouth.
9: Place the toppings.
Put the bean paste on the front side, squeeze the cream out behind the bean paste and sprinkle with maccha.
Place the strawberries to the right and prop up the Rilakkuma (marron) as shown in the photo.
Voila! We are finished.
You can use various ingredients as toppings. Let’s enjoy making the character-desserts using your favorite ingredients and fruits♡

With just a small bit of ingenuity, turn everyday food into something cute using Kaori’s Easy Recipe! With a few simple ideas, an ordinary recipe magically transforms into a cute dish. In this recipe, I’ll show you how to make an adorable Miffy Parfait using tofu shiratama! Tofu shiratama can be frozen without hardening, so it’s great to use for cooking as well as making sweets. Ingredients
250g refined rice flour 300g silken tofu ✩ This is about 1 bag of refined rice flour and 1 piece of silken tofu. Canned fruit or fruit of your choice ① Put the refined rice flour and silken tofu into a bowl and mix well. ⚠️ Do not drain the tofu! Don’t add water, just these two ingredients. ✩I knead all ingredients and then freeze it. Feel free to freeze it as dough, or boil it first. You can put them in Tupperware and store them in water in the refrigerator for a day or two. Don’t worry, they won’t harden! ② Add the coloring. Take a little bit of food coloring and add as you like. Here, I’m adding the yellow that will be the center of the flower. ③ After mixing the dough, place it on parchment paper and put it in the freezer for about 30 minutes. You can shape it before placing it in the freezer, but chilling it will make it easier to work with. ④ Cut out Miffy and her flowers. Place the yellow-colored piece into the middle of the flower. Roll the rest of the shiratama into balls. ⑤ Boil the shaped shiratama while on the baking sheet. Boil the round shiratama as well. When they float to the top, place them in cool water. ⑥ Place the shaped shiratama on parchment paper or plastic wrap and let dry briefly before adding decoration. ⑦ Mix black cocoa with a little water, and using the mixture, draw Miffy’s face. ⑧ Place the flowers and shiratama balls inside the glass, follow up with your favorite fruits! (If using canned fruit, feel free to add the syrup as well!) I hope you enjoy decorating this colorful dish!

Today, I’ll teach you how to make two-layer Mizu Yokan, perfect for a hot summer day! You don’t even need an oven to make this sweet treat--just let it chill and harden! It’s great as a summer vacation snack. IngredientsThis recipe makes 2 cups.

After boiling, reduce heat to low. 2 Pour mixture into container. After about 30 minutes at room temperature, the mixture will start to harden. Work on the matcha flavoring when it begins to harden. 3 Place matcha, water, sugar, and Kanten powder in a pot and boil thoroughly. As you did with the Mizu Yokan, reduce heat to low and continue cooking through. 4 When the mixture is heated through, gently pour it over the Mizu Yokan and refrigerate until ready to serve.

With just a small bit of ingenuity, turn everyday food into something cute using Kaori’s Easy Recipe! With a few simple ideas, an ordinary recipe magically transforms into a cute dish. In this recipe, I'll show you how to make a delicious banana cake that is tasty even if refrigerated! Ingredients
Makes a 18cm pound cake2 ripe bananas100g unsalted butter50g granulated sugar2 eggs100g weak flour 1 Bring the butter to room temperature and mix it with the sugar until it becomes white. I used unsalted margarine for this. 2 Gradually add both the egg whites and yolks and pour slowly into the mixture while mixing. Mash the banana with a fork, add to the bowl, and mix. 3 Sieve in the flour and mix lightly. 4 Bake at 160℃ for 40-45 minutes and it's ready! I used a 15cm pound cake tin and muffin tin to make mine.

Today, I'll be showing you how to make Strawberry Milk Chocolate Pudding, a delicious recipe whipped up with love for Valentine's Day. Ingredients
✩Ingredients For Chocolate Pudding 35g chocolate 300ml milk 30g-35g granulated salt 5g gelatine (dissolved in 1 tbsp water) ✩Ingredients For Strawberry Pudding 100g strawberries (fresh or frozen) 350ml milk 30g-35g granulated salt 5g gelatine (dissolved in 1 tbsp water) Weck jars for the dessert. 1 First, we'll make the chocolate pudding. Put the milk and granulated sugar into a pot and heat on the hob until the sugar melts. Turn the heat off, throw in the chocolate, and allow to fully melt. Once melted and the mixture is cooled, add the gelatine to dissolve. 2 Now, we'll make the strawberry pudding. Put the milk and granulated sugar into a pot and heat on the hob until the sugar melts. Add the mix to a blender with the strawberries and blitz. Add back onto the hob and heat through slightly. Allow the mixture to cool then add the gelatine to dissolve. 3 Once both mixtures are completely cooled, add them to the jars in an alternating pattern and chill until set. ⚠️Make sure the dessert is completely set and not runny before serving. About an hour each in the refrigerator should be sufficient. Top with cream and strawberries and enjoy!

With just a small bit of ingenuity, turn everyday food into something cute using Kaori’s Easy Recipe! With a few simple ideas, an ordinary recipe magically transforms into a cute dish. Today, I'll be showing you a simple recipe for Valentine's Day made with ingredients bought entirely from the 100 yen store Seria. I call it the "Rilakkuma Hot Chocolate Stick." Ingredients
Square mould from Seria (makes six sticks) 1 bag of milk chocolates 1 bag of white chocolates 1 bag of dark chocolates Toppings of your choice (I used caramel chocolate chips and walnuts) 1
Melt all the chocolates separately over a bain-marie. 2
Create layers with each chocolate type. Pick your first choice and pour into the mould and wait for it to set lightly before adding the next chocolate. For this recipe, I went ahead and added the chocolate a little before layers had finished setting to create a marbling effect. ✩I also added some strawberry chocolate I had left over from my Rilakkuma chocolates. 3
Once all your chocolate is in the mould, stick in some lollipops and add toppings of your choice making sure they don't overflow. This will ensure they set together with the chocolate. 4
Allow to set overnight and your chocolate stick is ready. 5
I made Rilakkuma chocolates from scratch and added those to the sticks to finish. Kaori invites you into her world of character-themed food dishes in her recipe series.
