Tenorikuma and Donut Bento

It’s been a few months since my kids last tasted donuts, and my gal is craving for one. So, I bought some donuts yesterday, and I thought that my kids would love the sugar. But what do you know? They asked me to shake off the sugar! Argh…Next time, I will get sugarless donuts!

Besides the half piece of donut, I packed hard boil egg for the kids as well. I decorated the hard boiled egg as the cute raccoons in Tenorikuma. Here’s how I did the characters in Tenorikuma.


I prepared 2 hard boiled eggs.

 


Cut halves for one of the eggs.

 


For the other egg, I gently sliced of the egg white, and use a small round cutter to cut the ears.

 


Use spaghetti strips to join the ears to the eggs.



I Cut some cheese as nose and ears too.

 


Place the cheese on the eggs as shown.

 


Punch some nori and add in the facial details.

 

Then, I packed the donuts and fruits in the bentos and slipped in the eggs. So, here are the bentos:


My boy’s little raccoon named Latte, who is the manager of Tenorikuma cafe.

 


My gal will have Maple instead.

The fruits are slightly lesser in today’s bentos because my kids snacked on them when I was packing their meals.
