Penguin Bento

I made Penguins for their bentos today. The one for home was made with rice and seawed. And the one for School was made with charcoal bread and cheese. I do not have a penguin cutter, so I used 2 different sizes oval cutters and a leaf cutter to cut out the bread instead. :)

No box for LT to bring to School today. The fussy boy insists that the charcoal bread does not taste good, even though it taste just like normal bread. -_- So, I did not bother to make him a box.

For me, in the box are chili prawns, chicken yakitori and butter bun. :)

  4. Wow, those Penguins are wonderful! I will have to try making Penguins in my bentos now. I sometimes get stuck with creativity because I think if I don't have a certain shaped cutter then I can't make it.

  5. Cute peguins! My boy won't take charcoal bread too.. Maybe due to the colour instead of taste.. But does charcoal bread has more nutritional value than normal breads?

    1. Tks, Bobo! Yup, I think so, guess he subconsciously feel it's not nice due to the colour. He did finish it at hm if I feed him, but he wun feed himself, so can't pack 4 sch. I dun think it has more nutritional value, but I read b4 it has some health benefits like lowering cholesterol, killing bacteria, etc.
