♥ Creative Sanrio Bento Lunches

Posted by Crystal - 14/01/09 at 08:01:57 pm

Why do we love Bento? Maybe one reason is that we can play with our food and not get yelled at about it! I have yet to make my own Bento lunch, but I’m becoming more and more curious about it with all these works of art I’ve been seeing. Who knew rice would make a better modeling tool than clay? Let’s have a look-see at some wonderful Sanrio Bento lunches that can best be described as “eye candy.”

Interested in creating your own magnificent Bento? Check out these books:

• Face Food:The Visual Creativity of Japanese Bento Boxes
• 500 Bento Lunches: 500 Unique Recipes for Brilliant Bento
• Hawaii’s Bento Box Cookbook: Fun Lunches for Kids
• Bento Boxes: Japanese Meals on the Go

Better yet; if you know Japanese check out these
Sanrio Bento design books on eBay. You could always use the photos as a guide. I’m considering purchasing one in the future. They would be nice to add to my collection anyway.

   I remember seeing pictures of stuff like this and I had a really hard time believing that it was actually food! I guess you can do wonders with seaweed and rice. I’m SO not that talented. I’d eat it before I was finished.
