Bento#172: Cinnamonroll and Mocha in Noodles Bentos

20. May 2009, 9:48 UhrBento, Sanrio Charactersshoppingmum6 comments

I would normally pack a heavier meal for my kids on Wednesdays as they have PE and swimming class at school. Most of the time, they will be very tired in the evening and some times they might just doze off to dreamland on the way back home, and can’t get up for dinner. So tiring huh? :P

If you are new here, you might not know that my kids spend long hours at school. They will come to our office after school at 5pm, and have their bentos at our office. Then, they will wait for us  until we are ready to go home. I know, it’s very very tiring for kids!

Thus, I fried some noodles for them, and added a quail egg in each thermal bento. I decorated the quail eggs as Cinnamonroll and Mocha by using these tools:


The tools used for Cinnamonroll and Mocha.

 

I prepared their ears and Mocha’s flowers last night with kamaboko since I would be very occupied with frying the noodles and boiling the quail eggs. Besides that, I dyed Mocha with soy sauce so that it looked brownish.

Their fruits were packed separately in another lunch boxes as shown below:


Besides fried noodles, my kids will have mangosteens, rambutans, and oranges today.

 

Here’s a closer shot of the bentos:

I spent an hour preparing the meals and packing the bentos. I guess I’m getting quicker these days. :)

    Bunda Key, thanks! I’m fine here. :)
    I normally get my stuffs from bentomarket.com and ask CP’s help to get the things from Japan. It should be cheaper this way, than buying directly from Japan due to the shipping fee, but you can give it a try.
