This char siu bao bear brings a smile to my face. It’s been a long week at work, and although it was hard to wake up this morning to make this lunch for Ms. Little Bubbles, the *SMILE* it brought to her face made me happy all day long. I haven’t had time to make cute lunches for her lately, so this was a treat for her. The bear is made from a baked char siu bao that her uncle and aunty bought for her this past weekend. They said it was a mini char siu bao, but it looks huge in this bento box. I cut the ears with scissors and added cheese to the ears and nose for added definition. As usual the eyes and nose are made from nori. I also have carrots, strawberries and mini mochi crackers to the bento. The bear is universal in the sense that you can make him out of any bun/roll.
