Hi everyone! Word has come in that some people that pre-ordered Yum-Yum Bento Box: Fresh Recipes for Adorable Lunches from Amazon have already received their copies! To celebrate this momentous occasion as well as to celebrate my 500th bento, I’ve made a charaben of the cover of the book. Enjoy!

Can’t wait for Yum-Yum Bento Box? Neither can we! In the meantime, here’s a video by Pikko on how to make one of the bento in the book, a Three Little Pigs Bento!

Designed by Maki, this cute little bento is easier to make than you think! Just keep some leftover food from dinner and add it in with onigiri and some fresh veggies. Visit Pikko’s blog at Adventures in Bentomaking and Maki’s blog at Cute Obento!

In just over a month, our book will be ready for distribution from Quirk Books.

These bentos are lunches that did not make into Yum-Yum Bento Box. Personally, I really like them a lot, such as the mini-pizza with crab (I bought them at Costco in Japan) or pompadour haired inarisushi.

Please check out the book on Amazonand sneak a peek!!
