Elephant Head Apple
How to choose apples for carving.
Apples should have a smooth, unbroken skin. They should have a consistant colour and a good shape.
1. Cut a very small segment about 1/2 cm wide and 2 cm long out of the apple and leave it in place. | |
2. Cut into the apple either side of the first segment to cut out a slightly larger segment below the original segment. | |
3. Continue like this making bigger and bigger segments that go deeper into the apple. Stop when the bottom of a segment reaches the middle of the apple. | |
4. Pull out the segments and arrange them so they overlap each other. | |
5. The finished carving. The widest part of the apple looks like the bumps on an elephant�s head and the apple trails down into the elephant�s trunk. |
