Elephant Head Apple

How to choose apples for carving.

1. Cut a very small segment about 1/2 cm wide and 2 cm long out of  the apple and leave it in place. Carving An Elephant Head Apple Picture 1
2. Cut into the apple either side of the first segment to cut out a slightly larger segment below the original segment. Carving An Elephant Head Apple Picture 2
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. Carving An Elephant Head Apple Picture 3
4. Pull out the segments and arrange them so they overlap each other. Carving An Elephant Head Apple Picture 4
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. Carving An Elephant Head Apple Picture 5
