Bao Balloons | Dumpling Balloons for a Dim sum themed Party
I am so excited to reveal what I’ve been working on for the past little while! Thank you so much to Julie at @julieanne.designs for helping me create this one-of-a-kind bao design! (See below for the workshop preview :)
Why host a Bao or Dumpling themed party?
Since the pandemic hit and changed our lives as we know it, it really made me reflect upon why I create art and my greater purpose. What happened in Atlanta in the beginning of April was the straw that broke the camel’s back, on top of all the hate crimes against the AAPI community throughout the US and Canada.
Creating this bao template is a way for me to share my love of food, culture, and let’s be honest: the way that most Asian families express love for their family members isn’t through verbal means. It’s through FOOD.
By hosting a dumpling theme party or bao theme party, you can support local AAPI small businesses in your own community by purchasing handmade buns and dumplings from a small shop owner. Also, making themed decorations are pretty easy :) All you’ll need is white paper and a marker to make a dumpling themed banner.
Here are some Photos:
(each template set comes with 3 different faces so you can make your own cute look)
As a bonus, proceeds of sales will go towards an AAPI charity (#hateisavirus)!
That’s all for now! Thank you for reading!
