Cute and delicious food art

Hi, I'm Yuki. I make cartoon-like food art to express my love for healthy eating.

Natural ingredients only

There's no need to use chemicals to dye your food. Nature is your ingredients.

Vegan and Vegetarian

What you see on Yukitchen doesn't contain any meat products.

Except, you know, Jabba the Hutt.

Childhood into a dish

My food art is inspired by my inner child.

Cooking is a place for me to express my regression, with a table spoon of nostalgia.

Rilakkuma Inari

In 1967, John Lennon wrote a song called “All you need is love”. He also admitted hitting women, “any women”, he said, and abandoned one of his children. He was a diligent peace activist, and wrote many songs about love and peace. He explained, “This is why I am always about peace, you see. It’s…

Rilakkuma Mitarashi Dango

I wonder if you have seen such a color as soft and chewy as Mitarashi amber. The golden glaze is made of soy sauce and sugar, and it covers the pearl-like sticky rice cake as known as “dango”, in Japanese. This is Mitarashi Dango, and all Japanese grew up with Mitarashi Dango, especially around 3…

Rilakkuma Scrambled Eggs

Most young kids will run after mom if she tries to leave them alone with a stranger. But according to a study, kids who haven’t bonded well with their mothers—psychologists call it “insecurely attached”—will rather stay behind with a security blanket. And in my case, it was always stuffed animals. They say kids with secure…

No Sugar Banana Bread

So far, my banana bread is my number-one requested food in real life. My people really like this, so I keep baking and baking the same thing; because I love validations. I think we all need them sometimes. My banana bread is probably tasty beacsue; One, no added sugar — If you use 4 ripe bananas, you really…

Panda Chia Pudding

Flaxseeds and chia seeds. Protein, fiber, and omega 3. There are so many recipes and articles about the so-called “superfoods”, and I’m afraid I became one of them who would soak oats and seeds overnight with my crazy dimples. It makes me so happy when I make this rejuvenatingly delicious breakfast. The trend of the…

Choco-Banana Rilakkuma Toast

This week I purchased a western food called “Nutella” for the first time in my life. I’m aware that Nutella is a wildly common food throughout the US and Europe, but not in Japan. I lived in the states for seven years, yet I promised myself never to lose my Bushido (the way of a samurai)…

Pacman Furofuki Daikon

You see, I gained 7 pounds around the time when I made this recipe. It’s just 7 pounds, and I know that it’s silly to worry about such a minor predicament; I have much bigger problems to deal with. But Japanese women, I believe, actually feel the same as western women about weight; we desire the…

Ohmu-Rice

Like most fans would say, “Nausiccaa(風の谷のナウシカ)” is my favorite film from Studio Ghibli. I constantly find beautiful fan artworks on the internet under #studioghibliart hush-tags, and that inspired me. Then I wondered what it would be like to create food art out of Nausiccaa. Surprisingly, the first thought that came to my mind was the “Ohmu”. The giant dark-green creature Ohmu….

Vegan Ramen With a Global Warming Polar Bear

Finding ramen without meat isn’t really an easy search. But it’s always easy to wonder if you can improvise the taste of ramen using plant-based items. I make a lot of vegan and vegetarian recipes here on Yukitchen, but making the world vegan is not my mission here. That would be supremacy, and no supremacy…

Jabba The Pie

When people tell you who they are, Maya Angelou famously said, believe them. However, when people try to tell you who you are, don’t believe them. But when they keep calling you “cutie pie” even though you don’t really know them, forget Maya and believe nothing but your own pie. You see, life is like…
