Panda Bento for Beginners

I managed to come up with another bento today. The previous weeks have been crazy, but I am glad to say that the next few months will be less stressful.

This panda bento was made with the intention to show bento beginners that you can also make a cute and neat bento meal without much effort in the kitchen. I used the panda onigiri set which I won  from Bento&Co's 2012 Contest. I have to say that the panda onigiri set is a real gem - it allows you to create super cute panda onigiri within seconds! Well, okay, I do exaggerate a little bit ;), I would say about 2 minutes per panda onigiri.

This panda onigiri set contains a panda rice mold and a panda nori cutter. It costs $13.50.

I placed the two panda onigiri inside a lovely pink lego-shaped bento box which I also received from Bento&Co. They're very generous, aren't they?

You can choose the colour you like best: black, white, pink, red and blue. My favourite is pink and I am glad that it's the colour which Bento&Co chose for me :). You can buy the box over here. The price is $29.80.

Have a great week ahead!
