To be honest, I have never celebrated Halloween in my life. Even though I am quite fond of watching thriller and horror films ;), I was never interested to join in the 'fun' of Halloween.
This is the first time that I make Halloween-themed meal, which, I am aware, looks more cute than scary :-). Well, I don't really like the idea of disgusting-looking food. It's interesting to see, but I don't think that I have the guts to eat something that looks like severed fingers or bloody eyeballs ;).
I have seen so many other bento sites with Halloween-themed bentos. Today I finally had the chance to make one as well!
I made two soy-sauce flavoured wizard rice balls. Somehow the wizards look a bit like Powerpuff Girls ;)! I guess, it's because of the humongous eyes! I used cucumber to make the green eyes, nori for the pupil and goat cheese for the shiny, starry-eyed look. The wizard's hat is from nori and cheese.
The three little Jack-o-lanterns are quail eggs which I coloured with orange food colouring. I also made two radish Jack Skellington look-alikes (next time I'll make the eyes bigger!)

You know, they're really not into celebrating Hallowe'en in France at all. No costumes, no make-up, not even any pumpkins on display... bah :( Beautiful bento, but of course - they always are! Even the radish has a little face on it - it's so precious :D By the way, did you make the shrimps yourself (the ones rolled with the crispy batter/noodle stuff?
ReplyDeleteOmg - love your blog! Thanks for visiting my blog so that I got to discover all of the cuteness on yours. Great job!
ReplyDeletei like the little pumpkins..i'm sure i will enjoy eating this bento! have a nice day!
ReplyDeleteThe witches look cool, and I thought those jacks were orange tomatoes. The orange color came out very strong! Love the radish Skellingtons too :D
ReplyDeleteI never observe halloween as well. But I know for sure I will see lots chocolate and pumpkin for sale :))

OMG, that is such an adorable bento box! Sooooo cute! And pray tell, which horror movie will you and the hubby be watching tonight? ;)
ReplyDeleteOw..your bento looks so cute, not scary at all...
ReplyDeleteHappy Halloween! The quail eggs look like those mini yellow-orange bell peppers and I love all the so detailed features in your bento! :D
ReplyDeleteCute 'powerpuff' eyes and I love them! Hee... ;P
Have an enjoyable horror film night! ;)
@ Charles - No, I didn't make the prawns myself, store-bought ;)! Well, they don't actually taste that good, I simply wanted to get some space in my freezer and so had to get rid of the last few pieces of them. They certainly look quite pretty though :).
ReplyDelete@ Carolyn Jung - Well, it wasn't exactly a horror movie, it's 'True Blood' ;).
ReplyDeleteNgaww...this is so cute!! Definitely one of my favourite halloween creations so far ;) I LOVE your jack-o-lanterns! Would never have thought they were made from quail eggs though!
ReplyDeletehow cute is this one! it's so adorable =) your blog is awesome and so are your Bento!!
ReplyDeleteAwww. Love your CUTE Halloween bento. I agree, I don't love the idea of eating scary looking Halloween food. Of course, my kids think it is a great idea. :)
