Care Bear Bento

A piece of good news before I go on to today's bentos. There will be a Pirate bento hop scheduled for tomorrow (19 September 2012), the hop will go live at 6 am PST, which means my post will be up later than usual, at around 9pm. This time round, you have to collect map pieces as you go through the hop at all the participating blogs. That will give you the URL to enter a Giveaway, where you get to win attractive gift vouchers to buy bento goodies from All things for Sale. :) Please check back tomorrow for the exact details! :)

Love-a-lot bears for today, made from bread. :)

For lunch, they had multi-grained rice, salmon, pork nuggets, broccoli and strawberries. The spots on the love-a-lot bear's cheeks are done with a food safe marker.

Used the Panda bread sealer for these. :)

    1. Lol, yes, everything looks great with pink. These bread were store bought n I think they used colorings. I've yet to make pink bread successfully using natural coloring agent, my few attempts with beetroot did not wk. :(

  3. I am always surprised when I see all the colors of breads you find. Here in Spain we only have the white and the cereal ones.

    Care bears are really cute, you make them really detailed, with all the cheecks spots ^^ And you are using the panda sealer a lot and giving a lot of ideas for it, I am starting to think I really need one...

  4. Hello Ming,
    That's a very cute bear you made! Looking at your bento pics always made my day! I'm wondering how you come up with such a creative theme day after day. :) It's difficult to find pink bread here in Singapore. May I know where you bought it? Thks! ~mrsyap

    1. Mrs Yap, Tk u! I plan what I want to do for the following wk over the wkend. :) if I've no inspiration, I look at bks n surf online for ideas. :) The pink bread is from a bakery shop o/s Tampines one. It was the only loaf though, I seldom go there, so I dunno whether they make tt often. U can try ur luck it u are there or try checking out neighbourhood bakeries, sometimes an hv gd find. :)
