cute rice balls

Cute Flower Onigiri

Onigiris are one of my favourite Japanese foods to eat. Very portable and usually with a delicious filling, these rice balls are popular on their own or as part of a bento box.

I made this simple flower design onigiri with tuna filling and spicy nori wrap.

Rilakkuma Snack Bento

My toddler is a fussy eater but when I serve her cute meal, she just can't resist it. I want eating time for her to look fun that's why I started making kyaraben/charaben bento.

Making bento is fun! I now have an excuse to make cute meals every time, thanks to my little girl!;)

One of the newest and sweetest trends in birthdays is the candy buffet. A buffet filled with candy and treats and party favor bags is set up for a take-home treat. Candy buffet is a sweet way to give your guests a fun party favour. So I made one for my daughter. I wanted to add lots of color that's why I chose colorful candies and designs.
