Around 2 weeks back , there was this public exchange between a couple . The girl went gaga over the cake scrapers but
when her boyfriend reminded her that he'd bought her many scrapers already , she dragged him to the next aisle and gave him such a good sounding , even I got scared .
Men and Women vs Practicality and Absolute Neccessity in Daiso . Daiso always comes out on top . Common sense out the window . Applies to muah as well I guess .
Anyway , here's my cache of I-must-have-it molds and cutters so far .
1 . Tofu imprints .
We need it because we never thought of imprinting our tofus with a cartoon face. Plus we can finally use that soy sauce spray bottle so the instant the dark sauce settles into the crevices , the imprint becomes clearer .
2. Sausage shape cutters .
Thought I needed it when I first bought it because which person can refuse serving a smiling sausage on a plate ?
( one of the worst don't work things I've bought in Daiso but shhhh let's keep this strictly between me and you )
3. Cheese , seaweed and ham shape cutters .
Needed because some punches don't work . And there's one that's pink .
4. Sandwich mold .
Love this . Keeps messy stuff like sardine sandwiches sealed tight .
Very much needed . Why ever did I put up with spills and messy leaking sandwiches before this ?
Pig face mold . Bought from Bangkok .
Not from Daiso .
5. Sushi molds .
Some are not from Daiso but I can't remember which ones they are .
All needed . Because you will sometimes have leftover rice and they come in a variety of shapes you can compress leftover rice into .
( what skewed logic )
New item . Also made in Japan .
Love this . Have used it a couple of times so far with extremely good results
6. Cookie cutters ....
....Rabbit & Sheep .
Because they're both standing up .
And that's a really sweet shade of purple .
....Bears .
Because that's so cute . Besides , there are 3 sizes and they nest together so cutely . Also it looks as if it's saying " Roar " in a cute way .
....Paw Print .
Of course we need a Paw Print .
You've got 3 bears on top , you need the paw to prove it .
....Sakura cutters of various sizes .
Because they're made in Japan.
Sheesh . And we like everything that has the Made in Japan label on it . Gosh .
Old one which makes its appearance ever so often .
Dog , cat and squirrel silhoutte .
Cat and Hedgehog
7 . Quails egg molds . Made in Japan. Rarely seen nowadays
8 .Can't remember if I got this from Daiso or Mr DIY . But I needed these colour coordinated cutters too . And despite the very fragile feel , it cuts tiny bread pieces with a very clear imprint even grown boys will love .
9 .Food drawing pens .
Fill them with sauces and draw .
Needed because there are no other food pens .
Please don't take my reasoning pattern seriously . But if you argue with a guy on those points , their hands will most likely go up in surrender and you will get your way because they think you're nuts , so it's best they get it for you , or let you get it for yourself before they "get it" from you .
