Bear Bento Lunch

Bears are abundant among my bento supplies, so here's a lunch I made for my little guy featuring that four-legged, furry animal. I went so far as to include the bear theme in the food itself with the Teddy Grahams. What, me compulsive? Ridiculous.



Other nibbles in this beary bento include cheese columns and apple flowers with raisins and a beary little sandwich. The centerpiece of this creation is an irresistible little bear container I found by chance on a kawaii site. I think it is a rare and special bento accessory. In fact, the site said so: Order soon. Only 2 left!

I make the little apple flowers by slicing an apple, then using a flower shape veggie cutter to punch them out. Just remember to soak in lemon water to keep them from turning brown. So annoying when that happens. These are topped off with an adorable little bear bento pick. This set is unlike any others I've bought because the little faces are staring straight up at you, instead of straight ahead. It's all in the perspective...

Happy Bento'ing!
