Foodarts!

Last month, I made quite a few foodarts mainly for Little A's lunch / tea breaks during weekends. Little A is a girl with lots of imaginations and comments. She will comment every foodart or bento that I've made. Loves her comments always as it is so cute to me :)

1) Keroppi 

Little snacks for Little A tea break, bread with pandan kaya (coconut egg jam) and nori for the details. Served with a cup of homemade soy milk. 

2) My Melody, pink soba

Using pink soba to make My Melody, Little A's loves food in bite size which is easier for her to eat and she can finished the food very fast. So I made these small little My Melody for her lunch.

3) Totoro, deco steam cake 

First attempt on making the deco steamed cake, I tried out the recipe from Little Miss Bento .Loves her recipes very much, it is easy and yummy.

4) Rilakkuma and Friends, noodles

Using Mee Poh (thick noodles) to make these Rilakkuma and Korilakkuma. Scrambled eggs for Kiroitori. Again it is in bite size for Little A :)

5) Busy Bees

A toast art using quail eggs for the bees. I soaked the quail eggs in the turmeric water and the quail eggs turn to lovely yellow colour just nice for me to transform them into bees. Place them on the cheese and added nori for the details.

6)  Baby Pooh

Make another nori cutting, lazy me make the baby Pooh so big, easier for me to cut...lol!

7) Mini dumplings

This foodart is to celebrate Duanwu Festival / Dragon Boat Festival. On this day, we will eat glutinous rice dumpling. I don't know how to make the glutinous rice dumpling but I love to eat :P So I make my own version of  mini rice dumplings with different fillings.

Hope you enjoy my foodart! ^_^

Update, update, update! (Bento #125 ~ #132)

Have been so busy lately and I still have so many posts to update. I think I couldn't make it to post them one by one so now I'm gonna post all the bentos and foodart together in two posts. Very short cut huh?! Lol.

For this post, I'm gonna share all the bentos that I've made for the past few weeks :D

1) Little Tiger Cub!

The little cub is made from egg sheet, pink kamoboko for the nose, egg white and seaweeds for the rest.

2) Mr. Happy!

I remember this bento is specially made for Little A. She woke up and request to bring bento to school so I made a quick bento for her. She finished the whole bento.

Simple Mr. Happy is made from barbecue flavored cheddar cheese and seaweed.

8) Pluto!

Bento for Little A!

Hope you like my bento creations. Will post another post for my food art! ^_^

Bento #123 ~ Baby Pooh in the egg?

Big E requested for cold somen to bring to school. Ah, that is pretty easy for me, just have to cook the somen and mix the sauce! Fast and easy! Since I still have some time, I made a baby pooh using mashed potato and place the baby Pooh in the hard-boiled egg as eggshell! Big E saw the bento and asked "mummy, how come the baby Pooh is in the egg shell? I replied "mummy, also don't know....hahaha".

Packed the bento in my favourite Japanese doll bento box! :D

Bento #122 ~ Pooh in Bunny Costume!

Sharing my Easter bento here. A bit late....:P

I made Pooh in bunny costume. I mixed some yellow furikake in the rice for the Pooh. Shape it using cling wrap and add nori for the details. Ketchup for the mouth and color gel for the bunny's cheek.

Simple bento with gyoza, sausages, eggs and grapes.

Bento #107 ~ Pooh Bear ~

Today I make a Pooh bear for my girl. I bought some ready made printed nori long ago, so decided to use it before it expired.......hehe. A easier and convenient way to decorate the bento ^_^. I make another Pooh bear using hard boiled egg.

In the bento, there are seaweed pork roll and cheese pork roll, recipe is from Bento,Monsters. Love her creations ^_^

Add some kiwi and strawberries to complete the meal.

 A closer look of the Pooh Bear....

A closer look of the Pooh bear. Does it looks like a Pooh ghost? :)
