It's almost Easter, so I decided to make something Easter-related : an Easter bunny :)! Well, at least my version of an Easter bunny - a rabbit with a pink bunny costume ;). I love rabbits anyway, so making this bento was a lot of fun. My long time readers should know that I even have four rabbits which I love to death :D).
If you want to try to recreate this bunny at home, scroll down and look at the (short) tutorial below. Please excuse the blurry pictures...!

If you want to try to recreate this bunny at home, scroll down and look at the (short) tutorial below. Please excuse the blurry pictures...!
Blushing Bunny Onigiri
- Cooked white rice
- Cooked pink rice (you can use Sakura denbu, beet juice or a drop of red food colouring to colour your rice.)
- White-coloured cheese for the nose and to accentuate the eyes
- Nori (roasted seaweed) for eyes, nose and lips
- Plastic wrap to shape the rice
Using the white rice, make a round ball, then cover it with the pink half-moon shaped onigiri.
Afterwards you only need to attach the ears and then add the eyes, nose and lips. I blushed her cheeks with pink edible dusting powder.
Filling: Blushing bunny onigiri, fried shrimps (ebi furai), cheese chicken nuggets, a piece of broccoli decorated with cheese and red currant, green beans/smoked ham rolls, tamagoyaki, Tonkatsu sauce and mayonnaise (in the blue and pink polka-dot containers), 2 slices of orange, 2 pieces of strawberries, a few pieces of sugar snap peas, a flower ham and 2 pieces of faur watermelon (from cucumber, surimi and black sesame seeds).
I will make some more Easter-themed bentos or sweet goodies in the next few days, so stay tuned :)!
