Instructions
Cut 6 slices of baguette.
Heat a pan on medium-high.
Add three tablespoons of butter to the pan.
Place the bread in the hot pan and brown on both sides until golden (about two minutes per side).
Shape the bear’s body with cheddar and the medium round cutter.
Cut the cheddar face with the small round cutter and the mouth with the mini round cutter.
For the ears, use the petal-shaped cutter (tuck the pointy end under).
Cut out the cheddar hands and feet with the metal straw (you can remove them from the straw using a skewer).
Arrange the elements for the bear on top of the crostini.
Top with the sesame seed eyes and nose.
Cut the oblong grapes at a slant and halve each half symmetrically.
Match the opposite halves to make two hearts and place one on each bear.
Serve.
