Bento2015#Mar30~Easter Bunny Hello Kitty

My first Easter Bento for this year 2015 and once again I dress up Hello Kitty as easter bunny ^_^ This round I make pink bunny costume for Hello Kitty and is pretty easy to make. Check out the picture layout that will show you the steps by steps since I can't take picture while making but I tried to draw out the layout using computer :p
 

Here is the closer look of my Easter Bunny Hello Kitty ^_^ I hope from the picture below you can understand how I create due to I don't have time to snap the tutorial. All you need is a cling wrap to wrap the rice. Before wrap the pink bunny, just mix cook rice with some sakura denbu. To make Hello Kitty face, make sure you press the rice flatten and join together with pink rice by wrap it together. 

Opps.... I missed out adding two legs for easter bunny for the above picture =_=" Anyway, I'm sure is easy to understand. The paw nori, I use paw puncher. And the red bow crabstick, I use Hello Kitty ribbon cutter. 

For side dishes have pea sprouts, minced beef with dark sweet sauce. I cut out some easter eggs make from egg sheet (yellow), edamame (green), crabstick (red/white). Punch out some nori shapes to decorate the easter eggs. The Hello Kitty basket is not edible but only for display ^_^ I just want to create a theme of Easter Bunny that Hello Kitty is searching for easter eggs :D Hope you like this idea. 

Bento2014#Apr17~Easter Sanrio Cathy

As per request from my daughter that she wants Cathy for her bento lunch ^_^ I didn't know who's Cathy until she showed me mini figures :) Look clearly, Cathy seems to look like Miffy except the nose different :D 

Well, since is a rabbit so connects to Easter Theme. My 2nd Easter Bento for today's post ^_^ Cathy wears pink so I've one Monbento bento box match perfectly!!

Leftover chicken rice for today's lunch that I reheat this morning. Cathy made from hard boiled egg. Punch out nori for eyes and egg yolk for nose. Notice the red easter basket? Guess what? Actually is a mini sauce container comes with a cover but I just use the body to made it as basket. Penknife cut out crabstick (red) for basket handle and add the white spots for decoration. I add some easter eggs ^_^ All eggs made of carrots, edamame and crabstick (white) Lastly, I add broccoli for some green touch and carrot as sunny sun! As for side dishes have gyoza, grapes and ketchup inside Monbento sauce container :)

Bent#March31~CuteZcute Easter Kitty

Happy Easter everyone ^_^ I'm going to make one more Easter theme bento! This time I'm using Kitty CuteZcute cutter since still have leftover charcoal breads. 

I spread peanut butter for her Kitty sandwich and this time I add the body using the head (cut out the head and turn upside town without cutting the face feature) Next, I used the Froggy cutter features eyes for Kitty paws and the tiny three toes, I used Froggy cutter features nose for it. So basically Kitty holding Easter Bunny. Inside Bunny food cup I add grapes and covered with cheese then used puncher to punch out nori for the details.

Repeat the same methods for White Kitty ^_^ And holds Easter Eggs Chocolates from triangle shape food cup.

Simple and cute Easter Kitty enjoyed their Happy Easter Day!! I hope you too have a wonderful day and like this bento snack ^_^ Cheers!

Oh....by the way, did you noticed that I displayed a tiny bunny? Is a Nano Rabbit blocks that my son loves to play and for his collection. Lovely and cute right?

Bento#March30~CuteZcute Easter Panda Bunny

I'm so happy finally got my CuteZcute cutters that I purchased from BentoBerries. So I'm going to make "Panda wears bunny headgear" for  Easter theme bento! 

Panda made from charcoal bread combine with white bread. I spread peanut butter sandwich fillings and arrange Panda into bento box. To made headgear, I tied gummy strings around Panda head and add "The Laughing Cow brand strawberry cream cheese" as bunny ears but I cut into half from one triangle cheese. To made the bunny ears strong, I put the cheese onto a piece of bread that I cut the same size. Next, I filled up with Easter Eggs chocolate.

So what to do to with the rest of the cut out? I just continue adding another Cutezcute White Panda but I can't add another bunny headgear as it will drop off so I just add two cute bunny picks on top :p Is still adorable, don't you think?

I hope all of you will have a great Blessed Easter Day with your family and have FUN! Also hope you will like this simple CuteZcute Easter Panda Bunny ^_^ Cheers!
