I used two toothpicks for each ear so that the rind wouldn&#8217;t spin around. It is quite heavy so it wasn&#8217;t really working with only one toothpick as support. The bow is tied to a toothpick as well. The face was very easy to make because I just drew it on to the rind with a Sharpie. I think I made the eyes a little close together though. They&#8217;re spaced out quite a bit more on the toy.<\/p>\n<p>You can see more edible Num Noms at the following links: <a href=\"https:\/\/lolliesorcandy.comindex.php\/2017\/01\/15\/num-noms-series-3-2\/\">Series 3<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/lolliesorcandy.comindex.php\/2016\/11\/17\/num-noms-series-3\/\">Freezie Pops + Taco<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/lolliesorcandy.comindex.php\/2016\/10\/13\/num-noms-series-2-special-edition\/\">Pancakes<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/lolliesorcandy.comindex.php\/2016\/06\/01\/num-noms-crafts\/\">Series 1 and 2<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>You can get the small pack of fruit Num Noms on Amazon.<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width: 120px; height: 240px;\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;OneJS=1&amp;Operation=GetAdHtml&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;source=ac&amp;ref=qf_sp_asin_til&amp;ad_type=product_link&amp;tracking_id=lollies-20&amp;marketplace=amazon&amp;region=US&amp;placement=B01LXQZ6NF&amp;asins=B01LXQZ6NF&amp;linkId=3998daf794a656dd15836ed522af5bf7&amp;show_border=false&amp;link_opens_in_new_window=false&amp;price_color=333333&amp;title_color=0066c0&amp;bg_color=ffffff\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><br \/>\n<\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1190 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/lolliesorcandy.comwp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/IMG_1518-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_1518\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lolliesorcandy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/IMG_1518-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lolliesorcandy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/IMG_1518-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/lolliesorcandy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/IMG_1518-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lolliesorcandy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/IMG_1518-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lolliesorcandy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/IMG_1518.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">For more Num Nom party ideas take a look at my <a href=\"https:\/\/au.pinterest.com\/stephhesselson\/num-noms\/\">Pinterest board<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"border-radius: 2px; text-indent: 20px; width: auto; padding: 0px 4px 0px 0px; text-align: center; font: bold 11px\/20px 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,sans-serif; color: #ffffff; background: #bd081c no-repeat scroll 3px 50% \/ 14px 14px; position: absolute; opacity: 1; z-index: 8675309; display: none; cursor: pointer; top: 1352px; left: 233px;\">Save<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"border-radius: 2px; text-indent: 20px; width: auto; padding: 0px 4px 0px 0px; text-align: center; font: bold 11px\/20px 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,sans-serif; color: #ffffff; background: #bd081c no-repeat scroll 3px 50% \/ 14px 14px; position: absolute; opacity: 1; z-index: 8675309; display: none; cursor: pointer; top: 1352px; left: 233px;\">Save<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"border-radius: 2px; text-indent: 20px; width: auto; padding: 0px 4px 0px 0px; text-align: center; font: bold 11px\/20px 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,sans-serif; color: #ffffff; background: #bd081c no-repeat scroll 3px 50% \/ 14px 14px; position: absolute; opacity: 1; z-index: 8675309; display: none; cursor: pointer; top: 2200px; left: 233px;\">Save<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"border-radius: 2px; text-indent: 20px; width: auto; padding: 0px 4px 0px 0px; text-align: center; font: bold 11px\/20px 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,sans-serif; color: #ffffff; background: #bd081c no-repeat scroll 3px 50% \/ 14px 14px; position: absolute; opacity: 1; z-index: 8675309; display: none; cursor: pointer; top: 2280px; left: 233px;\">Save<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"border-radius: 2px; text-indent: 20px; width: auto; padding: 0px 4px 0px 0px; text-align: center; font: bold 11px\/20px 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,sans-serif; color: #ffffff; background: #bd081c  no-repeat scroll 3px 50% \/ 14px 14px; position: absolute; opacity: 1; z-index: 8675309; display: none; cursor: pointer;\">Save<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This post contains an affiliate link.
