Samantha Lee's Charaben

Food + Art = Charaben. Can anything possibly be more delightful? Kyaraben or charaben (character bento) started when artsy Japanese mothers created cute boxed lunches to encourage their picky kiddos to eat.

Enjoy these adorable creations by Samantha Lee, a SAHM of two from Malaysia. Lee started her whimsical creations to encourage her elder daughter to eat independently. Now, she has more than 280,000 followers on Instagram.
Perfect for Halloween!

  7. They are gorgeous! I don't think I could ever do anything like this as I am too messy and can't seem to pay attention to detail unless it's in writing! Thanks for sharing! Who knew?
