Clown Bento

Clowns for today are copied from Berry Girl, she has a tutorial on her blog on how to make them. Hop over to her blog, Mommy Kiki Can to take a look, she has lots of awesome bento creations. :)

I'm using fishballs, instead of quail eggs for the clowns. Lol, no particular reason why, just felt like trying out fishballs. :) Their hair are cut out from carrot. The gel on the clown's cheeks melted, but I quite like the effect, so I left it. :P

For lunch, the boys had their favourite soba, with chicken, grapes and strawberries. :)

Made a typical taiwanese style bento for my lunch, braised minced pork which I kept from last night's dinner and fried chicken. :)

  4. Hello Ming! Your clown is very cute! I love their eyes, which puncher did you use for the eyes? :) And this Lego box is better size for my girl. I have the big square one, but it's too big for my girl. I wonder where to get this smaller ones? The Lego shop I frequent at Takashimaya has no stock. ;) Thks Ming! ~mrsyap

    1. Tk u, Mrs Yap. I used a Carla craft mini puncher, cross for eyes n sad mouth. This is not the Lego brand box though, those are big. This one is under the brand Diablock, I bought from Jmama. It's quite small, snackbox size. :)
