KONAPUN
Hi everyone! we haven't been uploading our blog for a long time and i guess its because we lost the momentum of blogging and its so hard to get back into it! well, today I'm here to blog because i have something exciting to share with everyone! It's something i discovered on youtube and eventually got so madly in love with, i watched almost every single video of it!
The title of this blog post is the name of this thing I'm currently crazy over! it's KONAPUN! its invented by the Japanese and I'm not surprised because they are really creative and innovative! favourite japanese inventions includes
karaoke***** love it to the max!!
Can't live without it, cup noodles!
extremely cute tamagotchi!
Of course there are so many other japanese inventions that we cant live without. A trip to Daiso would be very rewarding because of all the interesting inventions that they sell there. i cant come out of daiso empty-handed. i just dont have that capability yet hahaha. ok im digressing... i shall blog about the awesomeness of Daiso another day.
back to KONAPUN. what is that? Basically, it's a range of toys released by Bandai, in which you can make mini fake food by adding water to the powder to imitate the cooking process. The sets available range from sushi sets, pasta and even creating and decorating cakes. this is a play set for kids but im sure many adults buy this for themselves! The Japanese are really good at making fake food look like real ones and many japanese restaurants display them outside their shop. still not convinced? lemme show you some videos.
making sushi
making a full bento set
making doughnuts
these are just some of the videos available on youtube. if you are really interested, u can go onto youtube and search for konapun!
this set of toy does not only mimic the whole cooking process of the food, it also makes sounds and different effects for example when you deep fry food or pan fry it. it is AMAZING! this will be something to buy when i go to Japan soon! i will make sure i buy one of every set! HEHEHE anyone else wants to buy this??
p.s. it is not edible and the 'food' actually rots after awhile
pps. stay tuned for another post on popin cookin'! something similar to konapun but its edible!!!
